Brock Purdy contract details: How much will the 49ers QB earn after his massive extension?

Send Push
Brock Purdy ’s journey from Mr. Irrelevant to the face of the San Francisco 49ers just got its most emphatic stamp yet. On Friday, the quarterback agreed to a blockbuster five-year, $265 million contract extension, locking him in through the 2030 season and redefining the future of the franchise.

The deal places Purdy among the NFL ’s elite, averaging $53 million per year—making him the seventh highest-paid quarterback in the league. The agreement includes $181 million in total guarantees, with a staggering $165.05 million due in the first three years. According to SI’s Albert Breer, “Purdy will get $215 million over the first four years,” making this not just a long-term commitment but a significant financial vote of confidence.

49ers show full faith in Brock Purdy with record-setting contract extension through 2030

Unlike many recent high-profile contract sagas in the NFL, Brock Purdy’s extension came without public friction or delays. Even as negotiations took longer than expected, the 24-year-old signal-caller showed up for offseason workouts, never threatening a holdout.


In fact, Purdy’s presence at voluntary sessions while negotiations continued only reinforced what 49ers owner Jed York and GM John Lynch had publicly emphasized all offseason—that extending Purdy was not a matter of "if," but "when" and "how much." The answer is now clear.

“He reported to the start of the offseason program and now has his new contract before on-field practices start later this month,” NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero noted, highlighting the team's smooth handling of the extension.

When the 49ers took Purdy 262nd overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, few could have imagined what would unfold. Before he even took a snap in preseason, head coach Kyle Shanahan reportedly told York that Purdy was the best quarterback on the roster. That foresight became reality when injuries to Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo opened the door in late 2022.

Purdy seized the opportunity. He won his final five regular-season starts, took the 49ers to the NFC Championship, and posted an eye-catching 108 passer rating along the way. Despite a serious elbow injury ending his rookie playoff run early, he came back in 2023 with a vengeance.

That year, he rewrote 49ers history—throwing for a franchise-record 4,280 yards and 31 touchdowns. He led the NFL in passer rating (113.0) and yards per attempt (9.6), becoming an MVP finalist and guiding the team to Super Bowl LVIII. Although San Francisco ultimately fell short to Kansas City in a heartbreaker, Purdy’s role as the team’s centerpiece was unquestionable.

The 2024 season proved more challenging. The 49ers were ravaged by injuries, and Purdy’s numbers dipped—3,864 yards, 20 TDs, and 12 INTs—as did the team’s record (6-11). His passer rating dropped to 96.1, and several missed comeback opportunities defined the disappointing campaign. Still, the organization’s faith in him never wavered.

That confidence was further reinforced by San Francisco getting not just Purdy’s deal done, but also securing George Kittle on a four-year, $76.4 million extension earlier this offseason.

Purdy was initially set to earn $5.3 million in 2025 under the league’s performance-based escalator, a small reward for a Pro Bowl-level campaign. Now, he earns ten times that figure annually. It’s a monumental leap for a player who earned under $1 million annually during his first three seasons.

By extending Purdy before organized team activities, the 49ers sent a clear message: they’re all-in on the quarterback who brought them to the Super Bowl just two seasons after being the NFL Draft’s final pick.

The road ahead may still be tough—NFL success is rarely linear—but with Brock Purdy now officially the franchise’s cornerstone, the 49ers’ future appears in good hands.
