Purdy had a huge season as the full-time starter for the 49ers' high-powered offense. He was seventh overall in fantasy quarterback scoring. Purdy topped 4,000 passing yards and scored 33 total touchdowns with just 11 interceptions. Purdy had 20-plus fantasy points in 10 of 16 games, showing great consistency. He also completed a very impressive 69.4 percent of his passes, having great accuracy. Purdy will continue to be the starter for the 49ers top offense. Purdy is an accurate passer that takes what the opposition gives him. He doesn't force passes and can make plays with his legs if needed. He moves around the pocket well and is a good fit for the 49ers offense. He knows his limitations and is capable of the big play when given the chance.
FANTASY OUTLOOK: Purdy is a legit fantasy starter in this explosive offense. He will post consistent weekly numbers and finish as a top-15 fantasy quarterback once again. Last season wasn't a fluke. He can get around 4,000-passing yards, 35 total touchdowns and 200 or so rushing yards.
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy continues to be one of the biggest sleepers at the position in fantasy drafts this year. Despite finishing as the QB6 last season, Purdy is usually the 12th quarterback selected in drafts in 2024. That makes him a nice value pick in the middle rounds of one quarterback leagues. Last season, Purdy was one of the most consistent fantasy options and averaged 18 fantasy points per game. He also scored above 20 points in nine of 17 starts while throwing for 4,280 yards and 31 touchdowns on the year. Fantasy managers, though, don't appear to be buying the hype from the 49ers quarterback. However, he is certainly worth a shot in all formats. He has a solid receiving core consisting of Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle, and Christian McCaffrey. Those weapons mixed with Kyle Shanahan's scheme has allowed the young quarterback to succeed. Even though he won't provide a ton of stats on the ground -- 144 rush yards in 2023 -- his passing upside in San Francisco's offense makes him a low-end QB1 option in fantasy this season.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy made his 2024 preseason debut in a 16-10 victory over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday night in Santa Clara. Purdy started the game and spent the first three San Francisco offensive possessions under center before giving way to backup Joshua Dobbs. In that time Purdy produced a meager two completions on six attempts for 11 yards while taking one sack. From the beginning, New Orleans did a great job of putting pressure on Purdy, putting him in the grass multiple times. Whether observers blame San Francisco's lack of protection, Purdy himself, or credit the Saints' pass rush, it's wise not to overreact -- or react at all -- to preseason performances by entrenched starters. Purdy will look to shake off more rust when the 49ers take on Las Vegas on Friday night for their preseason finale.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is expected to start for Sunday's preseason battle against the Saints. However, the signal-caller will likely play sparingly. Purdy spent all of last offseason recovering from an elbow injury. Yet, he still threw for 4,280 yards, 31 touchdowns, and 11 picks during the 2023-24 campaign, adding two scores off 39 carries. With Purdy coming off a Super Bowl appearance, expectations are higher than ever. Fantasy managers should view him as a week-to-week starter in most formats, especially with Christian McCaffrey (calf), George Kittle, Deebo Samuel Sr., and possibly Brandon Aiyuk at his disposal.

Most of the San Francisco 49ers starters will not play in their preseason opener at the Tennessee Titans this Saturday, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. We already know that running backs Christian McCaffrey (calf), Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) and rookie Isaac Guerendo (hamstring) and rookie first-round wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (shoulder) will not suit up for a team that has been hit hard with injuries early in training camp. Quarterback Brock Purdy, receiver Deebo Samuel and tight end George Kittle probably won't suit up, either. The 49ers aren't unlike most teams early in the preseason in sitting their starters. There's still plenty of time for Sn Fran's offensive weapons to heal up before Week 1 of the regular season, but the offense's efficiency will be worth watching early in the year if most of their starters don't get much time to work together in the last two preseason contests.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy won't be satisfied by just winning games this season. "I want to be dominant," said Purdy in an interview. "Not just win games and feel like, 'eh.' I want to be dominant with the consistent decisions and feeling like we're the top dogs every day." The signal-caller finished the 2023-24 campaign by throwing for 4,280 yards, 31 touchdowns, and 11 picks. Unlike last offseason, Purdy won't be rehabbing from elbow surgery, and with plenty of weapons in his arsenal, he might accomplish his goal of dominating opposing defenses in 2024-25.

According to head coach Kyle Shanahan, San Francisco 49ers left tackle Trent Williams did not report for training camp due to contract-related issues. General manager John Lynch has negotiated with Williams' representatives throughout the offseason to restructure the final three non-guaranteed years of his current six-year, $138.1 million contract signed in 2021. Williams stands to earn approximately $20.1 million in base salary this season, along with a $750,000 per-game roster bonus. Each day of absence from training camp incurs a mandatory fine of $50,000 for Williams. His potential absence could have significant implications for critical offensive players such as Brock Purdy, Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel Sr., Brandon Aiyuk, and George Kittle, as Williams earns widespread recognition as one of the top tackles in the NFL. The 36-year-old has been selected to 11 consecutive Pro Bowls and named a first-team All-Pro for the past three seasons, highlighting his integral role in the 49ers' offensive line. Expect the team to resolve the contract dispute swiftly and ensure Williams returns to the field promptly.

The San Francisco 49ers were remarkably balanced and efficient with their passing offense last year, but they attempted fewer passes (491) than any team in the league during the regular season. Despite that, the 49ers finished fourth in passing yards (4,384), and both Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle hit the 1,000-yard receiving mark. Last year was the beginning of the team's evolution into a more aggressive pass offense, one that put more of an emphasis on big shots downfield to its receivers and Kittle. After taking wideouts Ricky Pearsall and Jacob Cowing in this year's draft, the offense is more capable against man coverage through the air. And given head coach Kyle Shanahan's trust in quarterback Brock Purdy, the investment in young receivers makes sense. The Niners called more pass plays than run plays in the playoffs, which could be a sign that Purdy will get more opportunities to make things happen with his arm in 2024.

Dynasty | 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has expressed an interest in staying with San Francisco. Dynasty Analysis: The fact Aiyuk wants a new contract is the worst kept secret in the league. The 49ers were unable to trade Aiyuk or Deebo Samuel during the draft and are caught in a salary cap nightmare as they simply can't pay everyone on their offense, especially with Brock Purdy eventually needing a new (and hefty) contract in the near future. Aiyuk wants to stay but also wants his money. There really isn't a clear indication of what's going to happen, so dynasty managers need to treat him as a "hold" right now. His value could easily go up or down based on a resolution this Summer.
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy feels better positioned for success heading into the 2024-25 campaign. Unlike last offseason, when the signal-caller was working his way back from an elbow injury, he has been training since the 49ers were defeated by the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII. "We got all the way to the end. We're right there and weren't able to finish it," Purdy said during an interview. "So for me, I had that taste in my mouth, and then get back into the gym, start slowly, working into it. And then here, in OTAs, getting with [head coach] Kyle [Shanahan] and going over all the games that we played in, every play, and going over situational football and stuff, and taking that and actually going out on the field and running things and repping things, and throwing to receivers. Last year, I didn't have that, so now that I'm able to attack those things, I feel like I've gotten better." Purdy finished the regular season by throwing for 4,280 yards, 31 touchdowns, and 11 picks while completing nearly 70% of his throws. It remains to be seen if the 24-year-old will be better than he was in 2023-24. But he's a viable fantasy quarterback in nearly all formats, even more so if Brandon Aiyuk remains with the Niners.
