Despite a tough season, Lynch expresses unwavering faith in Purdy’s abilities and future with the 49ers
San Francisco: So, John Lynch is really backing Brock Purdy, even though the 49ers are having a rough season. He was chatting on KNBR and made it clear he still believes in the young quarterback.
Lynch pointed out that Purdy has been great since he started playing. Sure, this year has been a bit of a struggle, but Lynch thinks it’s important to step back and look at the bigger picture.
He mentioned how last year, their star players like McCaffrey, Aiyuk, and Deebo combined for 40 touchdowns, but this year, it’s only two. Injuries have played a big role in that drop-off.
What Lynch loves about Purdy is his resilience. He’s confident that the whole team can bounce back together. They need to focus on their next game against Miami and fight for every win, no matter what.
Purdy had an amazing 2023 season, finishing fourth in MVP voting with record-breaking stats. But this year, his numbers have taken a hit, and it’s clear the absence of key players has hurt the offense.
As Purdy heads into the final year of his rookie deal, it looks like Lynch and the team still see him as a key player for the future. They’re all in on him, and it’ll be interesting to see how things unfold.
