For the first time since suffering an injury in the NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles, Brock Purdy stepped under center for the San Francisco 49ers.
In the 49ers’ preseason home opener, No. 13 was the first quarterback on the field for Kyle Shanahan’s offense on Saturday night in Santa Clara. The Iowa State product wasted no time with a quick connection to Deebo Samuel on the opening play from scrimmage for a solid 25-yard gain.
