2025 Fantasy Outlook
Purdy fell from QB6 in 2023 to QB13 last season, thanks to predictable regression and injuries to key players. Purdy’s YPA dropped from an obviously unsustainable 9.6, the second-highest mark this century, to a still-impressive 8.5, third in the league. Despite posting a career-high 75.8 on-target percentage (8th), his completion percentage dipped slightly to 65.9 (17th). He also lost yardage because the 49ers’ average yards after catch went from a league-high 6.5 in 2023 to 5.3 last year. In the red zone, Purdy regressed from a league-leading 29.7 TD percentage to a below-average 22.7 percent (23rd), costing him about five touchdowns. Injuries to Christian McCaffrey (13 missed games) and Brandon Aiyuk (10) perhaps made the backslide inevitable. The good news is that Purdy had career highs in rushing yards (323, 11th among QBs) and touchdowns (five, 6th). Continued rushing production and positive regression in the red zone would make a big impact for 2025. As will the return of McCaffrey, although Aiyuk’s rehab from ACL/MCL surgery may bleed into the upcoming season. The 49ers traded Deebo Samuel this offseason, in part because WR Jauan Jennings broke out last year. He’ll be the No. 1 WR if Aiyuk misses time, followed by 2024 first-round pick Ricky Pearsall, who finished his rookie year strong. And after consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, TE George Kittle is back with a four-year extension. A bounce-back into the Top 10 of fantasy QBs looks reasonable for Purdy. Read Past Outlooks

To resume practicing Wednesday
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Purdy (left shoulder/toe) will resume practicing Wednesday, at which point the 49ers will evaluate him to see if he'll be ready to return Sunday against the Jaguars, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Purdy was able to practice last week in a limited fashion after sitting out Week 2 due to a turf toe variant and also an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder, but he was listed as questionable for this past Sunday's game versus the Cardinals and eventually ruled out. Mac Jones got another spot start under center and completed 27 of 41 passes for 284 yards, one touchdown and one interception, but he also aggravated a PCL sprain in his left knee and is considered day-to-day, as Shanahan told Wagoner. San Francisco thus has its top two quarterbacks in limbo ahead of Week 4 action, so how Purdy fares as the week goes on likely will be the determining factor for who Shanahan calls upon Sunday.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
'Highly unlikely' to start Sunday
Purdy's chances of starting Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Cardinals has been termed "highly unlikely" by head coach Kyle Shanahan, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
By Shanahan's own admission, Purdy made "a lot of progress" during the week after missing Sunday's win over the Saints due to turf toe and a left shoulder injury. The fourth-year signal-caller even practiced on a limited basis all three days of Week 3 prep, but Shanahan stated Friday that at this point the staff was just focused on seeing if Purdy would be healthy enough to serve as the No. 2 or an emergency No. 3 quarterback versus Arizona.
