Tom Brady has had high praise for San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy this week.
Purdy was selected as the 262nd overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft and he did not have the most electric start to life with the 49ers.
However, he has improved with each year that has passed and he has been especially impactful in 2026/27 so far, with the Niners currently 5-0.
Now, speaking to Fox Sports, Brady has said that he’s ‘so proud’ of Purdy and is of the opinion that the quarterback can lead San Francisco to a Super Bowl
Brady was asked: “Can Brock Purdy lead his team to a Super Bowl if he needs to?”
He replied: “He sure can. He’s playing like one of the MVP favourites right now. He was leading the league in passer rating going to Seattle, distributing the ball to Evans, to Kittle, to McCaffrey, making plays on the move, extending plays on third down, scrambling when he needs to.
“He’s making so many impact plays. So proud of him, the way that he’s playing. A true field general out there, getting his team in the best plays. He went up to Seattle and surprised a lot of people last Sunday. Way to go, Brock.”
As Brady mentioned, Purdy, who has never won the award, has managed to get himself into the MVP conversation in 2026.
