JT explains why the San Francisco 49ers didn't overpay Brock Purdy, agreeing to a five-year, $256 million extension. Despite not being more talented than quarterbacks like Jordan Love, Trevor Lawrence, and Dak Prescott, Brock Purdy has already led San Francisco to four playoff wins and a Super Bowl appearance. JT argues that NFL contracts are based on production—not raw talent—and Brock Purdy has delivered more than several higher-paid peers. He also pushes back on the narrative that any quarterback can thrive in Kyle Shanahan’s system, pointing to past failures like Trey Lance and Nick Mullens as proof.
