Quarterback re-ups for $265m over five years, ESPN saysPurdy led 49ers to Super Bowl appearance in 2023
The San Francisco 49ers and quarterback Brock Purdy have agreed to a five-year, $265m contract extension, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Friday. The deal includes $181m in guaranteed money, solidifying Purdy’s role as the franchise quarterback moving forward.
Purdy, 25, was the final pick of the 2022 NFL draft – familiarly known as ‘Mr Irrelevant’ – but quickly defied expectations. After stepping in as the starter midway through his rookie season, Purdy led the 49ers to back-to-back playoff appearances, including a trip to the Super Bowl in February 2024. He was also named to the Pro Bowl and finished fourth in MVP voting that season.
