Injuries derailed the 49ers' 2024 season, though Purdy turned in arguably his best performance given the circumstances around him. He threw for 3,864 yards, 20 touchdowns, 12 interceptions and a 65.9 completion percentage in 15 games.

Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers have yet to come to an agreement on a contract extension, which has led to speculation that the former ‘Mr. Irrelevant’ could be traded instead. Although team general manager John Lynch and owner Jed York appear willing to sign Purdy to what will surely be a lucrative,

That's the pitch made by SI's Grant Cohn, who breaks down the very specific math that says the 49ers shouldn't pay a penny more than that to Purdy. Cohn writes that a three-year, $97.5 million deal is the best business. That's because Purdy's other option, if he doesn't take the deal, adds up to $97.3 million.
