Brock Purdy

Brock Purdy's pass-catching corps will look a lot different in 2026. Free-agent addition Mike Evans is expected to be Purdy's new No. 1 receiver, and the 49ers added WR Christian Kirk and Deebo Samuel in free agency as well. Ricky Pearsall is out for the year with a knee injury, and Jauan Jennings and Kendrick Bourne are gone. TE George Kittle is recovering from a torn Achilles and might not be full go at the start of the season. A nagging turf toe injury limited Purdy to nine starts in 2025. He threw 20 TD passes despite missing all that time, but he also threw 10 interceptions. Purdy has ranked inside QB1 range in fantasy points per game in each of his three full seasons as a starter. Consider him a low-end QB1 in 2026 fantasy drafts.

Brock Purdy completed 19-of-27 passes for just 127 yards and one interception in the 49ers 13-3 loss to the Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact

Purdy was held to a season-low 127 yards and failed to reach 200 yards through the air in a game for just the third time in his nine starts. It was also his only start of the year without throwing a touchdown pass. He carried the ball twice for 21 yards and had San Francisco's longest run of the night (11 yards).
