Brock Purdy of the San Francisco 49ers.
With the Brinks truck fresh from paying him a visit, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is set to begin training camp a very rich man — and head coach Kyle Shanahan is hoping all that money won’t change his young signal-caller in any way.
The Niners QB just inked a five-year, $265 million extension, making him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league. The deal includes $181 million in guarantees, with $100 million fully guaranteed at his signing. It also features a no-trade clause.
The contract is structured to provide the team with some financial flexibility, with a manageable $9.1 million cap hit in 2025, which escalates in subsequent years. This will better assist the 49ers to build a competitive roster around him.
When asked about his QB’s new deal, Shanahan shared the conversation he first had with Purdy after the ink was dry, as well as the coach’s hopes and expectations for Purdy now that he has secured the bag.
