Brock Purdy just played his third season in the NFL. He went from stepping in when both Jimmy Garoppolo and Trey Lance got hurt to becoming one of the biggest storylines in the 2022 season. He took the Niners to the NFC championship game, but an early in-game injury ruined his plans to beat the Philadelphia Eagles.

In his second season, Purdy took that next step and led his team to the Super Bowl, but the Kansas City Chiefs stopped them in the championship game.

His third season was the worst in his young career. Purdy attempted 455 passes and completed 300, posting 3,864 passing yards with 20 passing touchdowns but also 12 interceptions.

The 49ers went through some big changes in the offseason, and now fans are waiting to see what their revamped roster is able to achieve in a league with a new ruler and more teams eager to dethrone the defending champions.
