Brock Purdy has never been "Mr. Irrelevant" to Jenna Brandt. Purdy was given the not-so-flattering nickname - a moniker dubbed every year - when he was selected by the San Francisco 49ers as the last pick of the 2022 NFL draft. Less than one year later, however, the football player would be the starting quarterback for the California team after Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo were both injured during the season. In December 2022, Purdy became the first quarterback in his first career start to beat Tom Brady, leading the 49ers to victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 35-7.
