Brock Purdy is going to get paid. The only question is how much the 49ers shell out for their rising star quarterback. The latest reporting from the local beat writers suggests it'll be more than $50 million per year.

“John Lynch points out what we've discussed past few days: If/when Brock Purdy deal is finalized, 49ers will again be a top-2 or top-3 salary cash spending team in the NFL. The offseason is far from over,” Lombardi wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Brock Purdy just might get his wish. The 49ers quarterback said after the season he wanted a long-term extension "sooner than later," setting a goal to have it done by the start of the offseason program.
