The San Francisco 49ers are off to a 6-and-0 start to the season, and along with a stellar defense, quarterback Brock Purdy has been a main catalyst in their success. After an injury-plagued 2025, Purdy has thrown for 1,460 yards and 14 touchdowns in six games. In 2025, in nine games, he threw for 2,167 yards and 20 touchdowns, marks he could match in the next two to three games.

By turning these numbers into a visual graph, you can see that from the tail end of July to the end of August, the graph shows a pretty flat line. And then you see a jump. That jump correlates with the end of the preseason, where he played one game on August 20th and ended up being the collectors' first glimpse of him on the field since his injury-plagued year in 2025.
