San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan may have held his breath when defensive end Clelin Ferrell nearly struck quarterback Brock Purdy's throwing arm in practice, but the second-year signal-caller wasn't sweating it.

"But, honestly for myself, it's just football. I wasn't even thinking about it. He hit the ball out of my hand and I was going through to finish the throw and the ball ended up being on the ground.
