San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy has been limited in practice this week because of a sore throwing shoulder and will likely be a game-time decision for Sunday's game at Green Bay.

Purdy only threw a few passes Wednesday and Thursday during the portion of practice open to the media after hurting his right shoulder in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

The 49ers postponed Purdy's usual news conference until Friday as the team is still determining whether he will be able to play against the Packers.

"He was still limited today, he didn't do as much yesterday but did a little bit more today," coach Kyle Shanahan said Thursday in his weekly interview with the team's flagship radio station, KNBR . "He went out there and did a little bit then went back in about halfway through and rested up. Hopefully it will be feeling great on Sunday."

Purdy has not missed a start because of an injury since taking over as the 49ers' quarterback in December 2001. If he can't go on Sunday, that would deliver a major blow to his team's playoff hopes.
