San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy, earning just under $1 million in base salary this season, has been a tremendous bargain for the team. In previous years, Purdy's modest—by NFL standards—income limited his ability to splurge on lavish Christmas gifts for his teammates.
That changed this year. In a video shared by the 49ers, Purdy surprised his offensive line with a mix of Toyota trucks and SUVs, leaving his teammates stunned.
The gifts included five Toyota Sequoias and five Toyota Tundras. The heartwarming clip shows Purdy expressing his gratitude to the linemen for their hard work and dedication this season.

While Purdy's gesture was incredibly generous, Toyota likely helped offset the cost. Earlier this year, Purdy became an endorsement partner for the automaker, appearing in commercials and promotional content for Toyota Motors in California.
It won't be long before Purdy's finances match his growing reputation. Most expect the 49ers to offer him a lucrative contract extension this offseason, making him one of the NFL's highest-paid players. Soon, he won't need any assistance to afford extravagant holiday gifts.
