Brock Purdy

Brock Purdy completed 17-of-31 attempts for 212 yards and three interceptions in the 49ers’ 28-18 Week 7 loss against the Chiefs, adding eight rushes for 27 yards and two touchdowns.

Without Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and Deebo Samuel (illness) of most of the contest, Purdy was reduced to running for his life against an aggressive KC defense. He was erratic as a passer throughout but saved his fantasy day with two rushing scores. Purdy has seen his touchdown rate plunge this season in a suddenly inefficient Kyle Shanahan offense that won’t look the same until its superstars return to full health. Purdy has a solid Week 8 matchup against a hopeless Dallas defense.
