Brock Purdy signed a five-year extension worth $265 million two weeks ago to make him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league. The big contract comes with higher expectations, especially since the 49ers lost eight starters this offseason as they prepared to make room for extensions to Purdy (and Fred Warner and George Kittle).

Looking ahead to the 2025 season, getting the offense back on track will be a major key for San Francisco. Deebo Samuel is no longer on the team after being traded during the offseason to the Washington Commanders. The 49ers are going to be relying heavily on Aiyuk and McCaffrey getting back to full health.

San Francisco 49ers fans have often accused NBC Sports analyst Chris Simms of being overly critical of quarterback Brock Purdy. Many felt he consistently downplayed Purdy's abilities, a sentiment shared by several analysts early in Purdy's NFL career.
