The San Francisco quarterback is one of the lowest paid at his position in the NFL. That has allowed his team to surround him with talent
After leading the San Francisco 49ers to the NFC Championship Game as a rookie last season and following that up by taking them all the way to this Sunday’s Super Bowl, quarterback Brock Purdy has made a mockery of the “Mr Irrelevant” label he was slapped with as the 262nd – and last – overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft.
This past regular season the 24-year-old ranked fifth in total passing yards (4,280) – one spot higher than his upcoming Super Bowl opponent Patrick Mahomes (4,183) – third in passing touchdowns (31 – again beating out Mahomes, who had 27) and first in passer rating (113.0).
