San Fransisco quarterback Brock Purdy's hand-in-glove fit into Kyle Shanahan's offense has been ready to see it's due for some time.The 24-year-old is reportedly seeking 'top of the quarterback market' money in his upcoming contract negotiations with the San Fransisco 49ers, as per Tom Pelissero on the Rich Eisen Show.'With Brock Purdy, I think you have to look at it in the aggregate here,' Pelissero said.
Though Purdy has demonstrated he wields one of the NFL's strongest throwing arms, recording longest throws of over 50 yards five times last season and three in 2024.It's not a question that this trajectory over the last 24 months has made for a compelling case that Purdy is a high-value quarterback in the NFL.Now, the question is how much?It's worth noting that the 49ers' struggles in 2024 could certainly affect what leverage he has with the team.
