Compare him to Jimmy Garoppolo. When Garoppolo was the 49ers starting quarterback from 2017 to 2022, his passer rating in the fourth quarter of close games was 104 according to ESPN. For all of his flaws, he was mentally tough. As opposed to Purdy, who melts down.

There's no guarantee Brock Purdy will step foot on the practice field when the 49ers start OTAs in April. Purdy wants a contract extension and said he wants to finalize it before OTAs.
