49ers’ Brock Purdy Gave a Spongebob Impression and NFL Fans Were Losing It

The Super Bowl LVIII matchup on Sunday between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers will offer an alternate telecast to fans for the first time in history. The game being simulcast on Nickelodeon meant one thing during Monday’s opening night of media action—a Spongebob impression was on deck.

San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy drew the request from two young media members to give his best Spongebob impression. And to Purdy’s credit, he didn’t hesitate and immediately gave it his best shot, ultimately creating a video that took the internet by storm.

As wild as the impression was from Purdy, a large number of NFL fans loved it. Especially the fact that he even attempted to replicate the voice of the popular Nickelodeon character.

Of course, there was plenty of trolling as well, because it just wouldn’t be right if there weren’t a few critics.
