2025 Fantasy Outlook
Purdy fell from QB6 in 2023 to QB13 last season, thanks to predictable regression and injuries to key players. Purdy’s YPA dropped from an obviously unsustainable 9.6, the second-highest mark this century, to a still-impressive 8.5, third in the league. Despite posting a career-high 75.8 on-target percentage (8th), his completion percentage dipped slightly to 65.9 (17th). He also lost yardage because the 49ers’ average yards after catch went from a league-high 6.5 in 2023 to 5.3 last year. In the red zone, Purdy regressed from a league-leading 29.7 TD percentage to a below-average 22.7 percent (23rd), costing him about five touchdowns. Injuries to Christian McCaffrey (13 missed games) and Brandon Aiyuk (10) perhaps made the backslide inevitable. The good news is that Purdy had career highs in rushing yards (323, 11th among QBs) and touchdowns (five, 6th). Continued rushing production and positive regression in the red zone would make a big impact for 2025. As will the return of McCaffrey, although Aiyuk’s rehab from ACL/MCL surgery may bleed into the upcoming season. The 49ers traded Deebo Samuel this offseason, in part because WR Jauan Jennings broke out last year. He’ll be the No. 1 WR if Aiyuk misses time, followed by 2024 first-round pick Ricky Pearsall, who finished his rookie year strong. And after consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, TE George Kittle is back with a four-year extension. A bounce-back into the Top 10 of fantasy QBs looks reasonable for Purdy. Read Past Outlooks

Could miss additional time
Head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed after Thursday's 26-23 overtime victory over the Rams that Purdy is without a timeline for a return after a recent MRI revealed that he aggravated a turf toe injury in the Week 4 loss to the Jaguars, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. "He's week-to-week," Shanahan said of Purdy. "Don't know how [the toe] will heal."
ANALYSIS
With the toe injury keeping Purdy out for the third time in four games, backup Mac Jones made another start at quarterback Thursday and guided the 49ers to a win, despite working with a depleted pass-catching corps. Jones' solid work when called upon this season could prompt the 49ers to take a cautious approach with Purdy, who didn't practice at all this week and may not be ready to play in the team's Week 6 game at Tampa Bay, despite benefiting from a longer turnaround ahead of that Oct. 12 contest. The 49ers will likely have another update on Purdy's status when the team begins Week 6 prep next Wednesday.

A surgically repaired elbow had Purdy questionable entering last season, but he ultimately backed up his out-of-nowhere rookie campaign with another top-tier season, using the same formula that first led him to prominence -- intermediate throws that produce plenty of yards after the catch, combined with occasional precision strikes downfield. Purdy targeted receivers in the range of 10-19 yards on 27.9 percent of his attempts, second most in the league. His receivers’ work after the catch accounted for a league-high 29.8 percent of his yards on intermediate throws as he led the league with 1,615 YAC in that range. Just 8.3 percent of Purdy’s attempts went beyond 20 yards, but he completed a league-high 53.8 percent of those and had a 6:0 TD:INT ratio. All of that helped him lead the league in YPA at 9.6 -- the most since Kurt Warner in 2000 (9.9) and seventh most in NFL history -- while finishing fifth in passing yards (4,280) and third in TD passes (31). Supported by Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle and now first-round pick Ricky Pearsall, Purdy's yards after catch and big plays downfield should continue to pile up. The 24-year-old doesn’t run much, which limits his fantasy ceiling, but the combination of coach Kyle Shanahan’s offense and an arm that is stronger than perhaps perceived gives Purdy enough magic for another top-10 fantasy season.
