STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Stribling is Purdy's preferred target; 3 of 6 attempts went to him.

Stribling was Brock Purdy's preferred target on his lone drive despite the presence of Deebo Samuel, catching 3 of 6 Purdy attempts for 4 catches on 5 targets for 46 yards with two third-down conversions. With Mike Evans not practicing much, Stribling has stepped in to get reps with Purdy and is expected to share the field with Evans regularly in the regular season, positioning him as a potential target beneficiary.
