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.

Stymied in Super Bowl rematch
QBSan Francisco 49ers
October 20, 2024
Purdy completed 17 of 31 pass attempts for 212 yards, no touchdowns and three interceptions while adding eight carries for 27 yards and two rushing scores in Sunday's 28-18 loss to Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Both starting quarterbacks in Sunday's Super Bowl LVIII rematch struggled passing the ball against tough opposing defenses, combining for no touchdown passes and five interceptions. Patrick Mahomes wound up earning the victory for his team, but Purdy had the superior fantasy day with two trips to the end zone as a rusher. The latter also lost his top two receivers to injury at halftime, which helps excuse the horrific passing performance. Purdy was coming off of his best statistical game of the season in Week 6, so fantasy managers shouldn't panic ahead of a much softer matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday.

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
Likely to play very short-handed
QBSan Francisco 49ers
September 20, 2024
Purdy appears headed toward having to play Sunday's game against the Rams without three key offensive weapons, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The third-year signal-caller already knows he'll be without Christian McCaffrey, who's on injured reserve with Achilles and calf issues, and Deebo Samuel, who has a calf injury of his own. However, tight end George Kittle, who would have seen a bump in targets with Samuel out, is also doubtful to play due to a hamstring injury.
