Brock Purdy Looks To Rebound In Minnesota

Brock Purdy Looks To Rebound In Minnesota

one year ago

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy will be leaving behind the worst game of his career when his team goes to Minnesota to take on the Vikings on Monday. Last week in Cleveland, he was 12 of 27 for 125 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Purdy will be without Deebo Samuel for at least a couple of weeks and could be without often-targeted Christian McCaffrey (oblique), who remains questionable. However, Purdy has shown that he can still be productive without all of his playmakers like in Week 3 against the Giants when he threw for 310 yards and two touchdowns without Brandon Aiyuk. All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) is doubtful so the 49ers could have trouble with NFL sack leader Danielle Hunter, but Minnesota's pass defense has nonetheless allowed the league's 10th-most QB fantasy points per game. Purdy checks in this week as a low middle-tier QB1.
