The honeymoon phase is over for quarterback Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers. Purdy agreed to a contract extension that makes him one of the richest players in NFL history, Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein confirmed Friday. He reportedly landed a five-year, $265 million deal with the team, ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported.

It's a monumental pay raise over the rookie salary Purdy made his first three years in the league as a seventh-round draft pick, which paid him an average of $934,000 annually.

The new deal makes Purdy among the highest paid in the league. It will earn him around $53 million per season, which is in line with Jared Goff and Tua Tagovailoa. Only a handful of quarterbacks in the NFL earn more than him per season. Purdy's deal also includes $181 million in guaranteed money.

Nice work if you can get it.

1. So glad he won't have to wear hand-me-down cleats any more......

This $$$ is INSANE!

2. As the real estate agent says: "comps".

He’s better than some higher-priced QB’s.

If the front office bolsters the offensive line, he’ll show his true potential, though Mister “Photobomb Brock Purdy with a fucking MAGA hat” Nick Bosa, is in my opinion “THE BOSA CURSE” and the 49ers won’t win another Lombardi until he’s defending Trump against alligators in Merde A Lago.



I’d trade him for that 747, but I’m not G.M.

3. The cost was higher than $265 million ...

factor in the free agency losses of Dre Greenlaw and a few other veterans the 49ers made low-ball offers to, plus the free agents they couldn't afford to add, just to plan for Purdy.

That O-line is the 49ers Achilles' heel.
