24-Year-Old QuarterbackQB
San Francisco 49ers
2024 Fantasy Outlook
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.

Purdy completed nine of 12 pass attempts for 96 yards and one interception in Friday's preseason finale against the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Purdy had a better go of things in his second preseason tilt after completing just two of six attempts against the Saints in last week's exhibition. The 24-year-old wound up completing three drives Friday before an interception off a tipped pass ended the starter's final exhibition appearance of 2024. Preseason results rarely matter for proven starters in the NFL, so fantasy managers should focus on Purdy's stellar 4,280/31/11 regular-season passing line from his breakout 2023 campaign, given his good health and favorable fantasy situation heading into Week 1.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The last pick in the 2022 draft, Purdy’s remarkable run to relevance last season ended with an elbow injury in the NFC championship. Before that, though, he seemingly had proven enough to earn the starting job for this season. In the last six regular-season games (five starts), Purdy threw 13 TDs and three interceptions as the 49ers went 6-0. He was highly accurate (7th in on-target percentage), but that was partly because he didn’t stretch the field -- his average target depth was just 6.9 yards and a mere 5.3 percent of his attempts surpassed 20 yards, third lowest among QBs with at least 170 attempts. He benefited from the 49ers’ league-high 6.6 YAC average -- a number that won't necessarily regress given the 49ers' excellent collection of skill players and history of YAC-heavy offenses under Kyle Shanahan. If Purdy goes downfield more, all the better. Shanahan said in May that Purdy is expected to be ready for training camp after having UCL surgery in March. That seems optimistic, so it's possible Trey Lance or Sam Darnold ends up starting Week 1. In Lance's case, there's a chance he doesn't give the starting job back if he gets it, considering he was the third overall pick in 2021 and is actually a few months younger than Purdy.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Key wideout finally locked in
QBSan Francisco 49ers
August 29, 2024
Purdy will have Brandon Aiyuk as one of his primary targets again in 2024 and beyond after the wideout agreed to a four-year, $120 million extension with the 49ers on Thursday, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
At various points over the last several weeks, it seemed possible Purdy would be down a key weapon moving forward after trade talks surrounding Aiyuk heated up. However, with the fifth-year wideout now officially back in the fold, Purdy will be assured of full continuity in terms of the primary skill-position weapons the quarterback worked with during his breakout 2023 campaign.
