Purdy's debut showed he belonged; 25/37, 210 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT, 88.8 rating.

In his first game as a starter (Dolphins, Dec 4, 2022), Purdy completed 25 of 37 passes (67% completion rate, 5.7-yard average) for 210 yards, 2 TDs, and 1 INT with an 88.8 rating. While the raw numbers were not special for a rookie, the performance demonstrated he belonged in the NFL and could hang in the pocket under pressure, setting the stage for his emergence as the 49ers' future starter after Garoppolo's foot injury ended the season.
