Chubba Purdy News, Rumors, Updates - Nevada Wolf Pack

Available against Georgia Southern Purdy (shoulder) has been cleared to start throwing in practice. He's expected to be available for Nevada's Sep. 7 game against Georgia Southern and a full go by Week 3 against Min...

Impact Purdy won't make it on the field for Nevada's season opener against Troy but should see a return as soon as game two. Although "available" does not mean the quarterback will for sure play against the Eagles, his current recovery schedule puts him back to be fully healthy by the Wolf Pack's third game of the season versus the Golden Gophers.

Absent from depth chart Purdy is not listed in the depth chart for the Week 1 matchup against Troy on Saturday.

Impact Troy missed the opener last week and is set for an MRI, so it seems Nevada will take all the precautions they can take with their signal-caller. As long as he's out, expect AJ Bianco and Anthony Grigsby to battle for the backup role behind the starter, Brendon Lewis.

Going in for MRI next week Purdy (shoulder) will go in for an MRI early next week, Chris Murray of nevadasports.net reports.

Impact Purdy was named QB2 earlier on Monday, and his shoulder injury likely held weight towards this decision. While he will more than likely not suit up for this upcoming Saturday's game against SMU, the results of his MRI should bring more insight towards his availability for the following week's game against Troy.

Not starting QB for Week 0 Purdy (shoulder) will not be Nevada's starting quarterback Saturday against SMU, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Brendon Lewis will be Nevada's starting quarterback for Week 0 on Saturday. Currently, it is unclear whether or not Purdy's shoulder injury played a part in the QB decision. He continues to be hampered and limited by his shoulder injury, which makes his availability status questionable at best before the Wolf Pack host SMU this weekend.

Nursing shoulder injury Purdy is nursing a shoulder injury, Shannon Kelly of NevadaSportsNet.com reports.

Impact The shoulder injury stems from spring and has continued going into fall. However, Nevada's head coach Jeff Choate is hopeful that the Wolf Pack can "get him going again next week" and just before they begin their 2024 season against SMU on Aug. 24.

AUGUST 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still competing for QB1 gig Purdy is still competing with Brendon Lewis for the starting quarterback job in Reno, Chris Murray of NevadaSportsNet reports.

Impact Purdy is reportedly trailing returning quarterback Brendon Lewis for the starting gunslinger role, but the competition remains open as Nevada's fall camp kicks into high gear. The Nevada transfer still has a shot to trot out with the starters when the Wolfpack take the field against SMU in Week 0, and this competition appears as though it may come down to the wire.

Impact Purdy largely struggled through the air on the day, completing just over 50 percent of his passes for 189 yards and a touchdown, adding an interception as well. The sophomore quarterback also led the Cornhuskers in rushing on the day, totaling 42 of the team's 75 yards on the ground on 12 attempts. Purdy will finish the season with 382 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in five games (two starts), adding 180 yards and a score on the ground as well.

Off injury report vs Wisconsin Purdy has been removed from the injury report and will be available for Saturday's game against Wisconsin.

Impact After being shaken up during last week's game against Maryland, the sophomore quarterback is now cleared and could see the field again as starter Heinrich Haarberg (ankle) is listed as questionable. Purdy completed one of three passes for 24 yards in his limited snaps last week.

NOVEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with injury Head coach Matt Rhule indicated Monday that Purdy is "banged up" and questionable for Saturday's game against Wisconsin, Mitch Sherman of The Athleticreports.

Impact With starting quarterback Heinrich Haarberg (ankle) and Purdy reportedly dealing with injuries, Jeff Sims could get the start under center for the Cornhuskers. More news will surface regarding the availability for all the team quarterbacks.

Scores in relief duty Purdy went 7-of-11 passing for 35 yards and one interception while adding 29 yards and a touchdown over five rushes during Saturday's 49-14 loss to Oklahoma.

Impact Purdy stepped in for starting quarterback Casey Thompson after Nebraska's second-team offense took the field midway through the third quarter. The backup signal-caller notched Nebraska's only score outside of a 32-yard touchdown reception by Trey Palmer on the team's opening offensive series. Purdy's so-so performance in relief for Thompson does not figure to create any sort of position controversy heading into Nebraska's next game against Indiana on Oct. 1.
