Holder since the 2022 season at the 49ers, Brock Purdy convinced. He is now rewarded.
According to ESPN, he has just signed a new contract this Friday with the San Francisco franchise. This contract amounts to $ 265 million, including 181 million guaranteed. His extension was the priority of General Manager John Lynch after the end of the 2024 season.
By going total, that makes him the 5th quarterback valued. But per year, it is not in the top 5. Purdy is at the level of Tua Tagovailoa (QB, Dolphins), Jared Goff (QB, Lions), but a bit above Justin Herbert (QB, Chargers). It also means that he will touch more a week from now on, than what he touched in cumulative during his first 3 years in NFL.
“Mr. irrelevant” during the Draft 2022, Brock Purdy succeeds in his bet to be a quarterback of franchise.
Brock Purdy, already an appearance at the Super Bowl
Since he was entrusted to him the reindeer of the attack in early December 2022, Brock Purdy has experienced a meteoric ascent. Despite everything, his last season will not stay in the annals. The collective assessment is negative, but it was not helped by the injuries of several teammates either.
However, before this negative season, Brock Purdy surprised a lot of people. His 2nd season of the League was that of astonishment since he brings the 49ers to the Super Bowl. His overall assessment after 3 seasons remains excellent, especially if we take the context that it is a last choice of Draft, with 27 victories and 15 defeats (Playoffs included).
In statistical terms, he launched 64 touchdowns, and 27 career interceptions. It is not far from 10,000 career yards in the pass also (9518). But the most interesting statistics to remember is that since he has holder, he is the leader in terms of yards at the pass by attempt (9 yards per attempt).
