Overview

  • Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers have agreed to a five-year, $265 million extension, including $181 million in guaranteed money.
  • The deal ties Purdy for seventh among NFL quarterbacks in average annual salary at $53 million and runs through the 2030 season.
  • Purdy's rapid rise from the final pick of the 2022 NFL Draft to franchise quarterback includes a Pro Bowl selection and a Super Bowl appearance in 2023.
  • The 49ers have begun restructuring their roster and salary cap, parting with key players like Deebo Samuel and Talanoa Hufanga, to accommodate Purdy's new contract.
  • Following a disappointing 6-11 season in 2024, Purdy faces heightened expectations to lead San Francisco back to playoff contention with a reshaped roster.
