5 reasons why 49ers QB Brock Purdy will be better in 2024

The San Francisco 49ers appear to have found their quarterback. It was a bumpy road on the journey to locate him, too.

Amidst significant offseason chatter surrounding the 49ers' star receiver, including several unsubstantiated trade rumors, Aiyuk's future remains uncertain. Former NFL player James Jones, now an analyst, expressed concern for Purdy should Aiyuk's tenure in the Bay Area come to an end.
