From the article

Niners defensive coordinator Raheem Morris came up with the nickname early in training camp when talking about the quarterback's touch... 'It's cool that Raheem notices that, so I guess it's a part of my game. But obviously, I like to think I can make any throw in the field, not just that one.'

Purdy's touch and layering ability recognized as part of his game identity.

Purdy's touch and throwing style—described by defensive coordinator Raheem Morris as a 'fever backer' quality—is a recognized part of his game; Purdy acknowledges the trait but emphasizes he can make any throw on the field, not just layered passes. His quarterbacks coach Mick Lombardi prefers a 'driven' approach, but Morris's observation of Purdy's touch suggests it's a consistent element of his play.
