Purdy's 24.6 PPG in 2025 ranks elite; proven QB1 in Shanahan system with upgraded weapons.

Purdy averaged 24.6 points per game in 2025 when on the field, ranking behind only Josh Allen and Matthew Stafford despite playing just nine games due to toe and shoulder ailments. The source notes his 7.0 touchdown percentage matches his impressive 2023 season and is even more impressive given the 49ers' skill corps deficiencies. At a 49-game sample size, Purdy has proven himself a legitimate QB1 operating as the perfect pilot for Shanahan's quarterback-friendly system; he's a born playmaker who attempts to execute in style rather than just knock down pins. With Shanahan having assembled more offensive weapons this offseason, Purdy's efficiency should remain elite if he can stay healthy.
