From the article

Purdy is a slippery runner when he has to be. Last season, he rushed for 15+ yards in seven of his 11 starts including gains of 24 and 37 yards on the ground in two playoff outings. Player projections range from 14 to 20 rushing yards in Week 1, with my number sitting at 18+ versus L.A.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Purdy projected for 18+ rushing yards with Aaron Donald out; elite runner vs. four-man pressure.

Purdy is projected for 18+ rushing yards versus the Rams in Week 1, with player models ranging 14–20 yards. The source notes Purdy is a slippery runner who rushed for 15+ yards in seven of his 11 starts last season, including 24 and 37-yard playoff performances. Purdy's best rushing outings came against defenses that generate pressure via four-man rush without heavy blitz, matching the Rams' defensive profile. Aaron Donald's absence from the Australia trip removes a key pass-rush threat, improving Purdy's mobility window.
