SANTA CLARA – Is it too early for Brock Purdy to pick up the NFL Comeback Player of the Year award?His full-speed-ahead return from elbow surgery is the 49ers’ ideal scenario, and it complements a preseason in which all other starters also escaped serious injury, as far as we know.The 49ers did spend the past month without Nick Bosa, the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year. But that may not be the detriment you think. It could behoove them to delay his contract extension until after Tuesday’s 53-man roster deadline.See, Bosa does not count toward that, because he is on the reserve/did-not-report list. The 49ers could use that spot on one of several roster-bubble players who are injured.Here is a projected blueprint for how to whittle the roster to 53:QUARTERBACK (3)IN: Brock Purdy, Sam Darnold, Brandon AllenAnalysis: Last season’s ending screams for the 49ers to employ a three-man band.

For Angela Graham, it all started eight years ago.Nearly two decades of encountering disturbing scenes while on the job triggered extreme anxiety, nightmares and uncontrollable anger in the retired Santa Clara County firefighter. She tried talk therapy, medication and a treatment that involves moving one’s eyes in a specific pattern while processing traumatic memories called EMDR.But none of it really worked for her.Then, through an acquaintance, Graham discovered a clinic in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico, that offers guided psychedelic trips with mushrooms and DMT to help people heal from mental health problems. The psychedelic journey she took last year felt like “being turned inside out” — and jumpstarted her road to recovery.“You know, I’m not a hippie,” said Graham, who retired in June after 17 years. “But they might have been on to something.”The experience was so life-altering and cathartic that it pushed Graham to form the S.I.R.E.N....Latest news
