Brock Purdy is one of one

The 3X Super Bowl winner Young is a legend for any player. But for the 49ers QB, he is someone to learn and grow from. That is the opportunity Purdy had when both QBs sat down for a talk.

Though Purdy is grateful for the opportunity, he also let out his thoughts on comparison with other QBs. “Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, those guys are great but I’m not them and they’re not me. I know who I am” said the 24-year-old with confidence. Previously, Young had enquired about Purdy’s thought process regarding the comparisons media often makes.
