Some people think Brock Purdy is an elite quarterback. As of now, San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan is not one of those people.
He led the entire NFL in passer rating last season, finished fourth in the MVP voting and went to a Super Bowl. He has a better resume than some of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league. Which means he could become the highest-paid player in the NFL next year if he has another great season."He's got enough tape out there that everyone has a good grasp of what Brock is, and that's a very good quarterback," Shanahan said.
Don't be surprised if the 49ers offer Purdy an extension next year that's worth less than $50 million per season on average, and don't be shocked if their offer offends Purdy.Grant Cohn has covered the San Francisco 49ers daily since 2011. He spent the first nine years of his career with the Santa Rosa Press Democrat where he wrote the Inside the 49ers blog and covered famous coaches and athletes such as Jim Harbaugh, Colin Kaepernick and Patrick Willis.
