San Francisco: So, Fred Warner was cracking jokes about his teammate Brock Purdy. He was talking about how Purdy might blow his expected big contract on flashy stuff like chains and cars. It was all in good fun, of course.
Warner said, “Yeah, I think the first thing he’ll do is buy a bunch of chains, cars, houses — do the whole thing.” He really thinks Purdy deserves the big bucks, though, saying he’s the right guy for it.
When Purdy heard about Warner’s comments, he laughed it off but didn’t completely shut it down. He said, “If that does happen, I’ll deny that,” with a grin. Classic Purdy, right?
Now, just to give you some context, Purdy is in the last year of his rookie deal, making about $1.1 million next season. But he’s expected to sign a huge extension worth around $50 million. Not too shabby!
Even with the 49ers’ rough season, Purdy is feeling good about the future. He told reporters he wants to stay in San Francisco and hopes the contract talks go smoothly and privately.
For now, Warner is just having a blast with the jokes. But honestly, don’t expect Purdy to show up to training camp in a spaceship or anything wild. That’s just not his style.
