Blake Clark has been invited to the wedding of San Francisco 49ers’ rising star, Brock Purdy, and his longtime girlfriend, Jenna Brandt. It’s quite surprising to discover that the 49ers’ star has a close connection to a prominent NCAA women’s basketball superstar. This connection comes through Caitlin Clark, who is known to the 22-year-old WNBA-bound star through her older brother, who happened to be Purdy’s college football teammate at Iowa State.
During his time at Iowa State, the 24-year-old quarterback achieved impressive statistics. Over the course of four years, he achieved the highest number of wins by any quarterback in the history of college football, with a record of 32-17. He also led the team to four consecutive bowl games and holds impressive records in passer rating (12,170), completions (993), touchdown passes (81), and completion percentage (67.7 percent).
Interestingly, Purdy’s backup quarterback at Iowa State was none other than Blake Clark’s older brother. The two not only shared the same locker room but also developed a deep bond. This brings us to the present, where Blake Clark has received an invitation to Purdy’s wedding with his longtime girlfriend, Jenna Brandt.
While the exact date of the wedding has not been disclosed to the media, Purdy himself confirmed the news in a conversation with internet star ahead of the Super Bowl LVIII game. It is worth noting that Brock Purdy recently revealed the surprising connection he shares with NCAA star Caitlin Clark.
Purdy shared this connection before Caitlin broke the NCAA women’s basketball scoring record. After an outstanding performance, scoring 49 points against the Michigan Wolverines, Caitlin now holds the top spot with 3,569 points. These remarkable numbers make her the most promising candidate for the 2024 WNBA draft.
In discussing Caitlin, Purdy expressed his admiration and inspiration. He mentioned that witnessing her ability to motivate her teammates fires him up to do the same for the Niners. Purdy also showered Caitlin with high praise, noting that since high school, it was evident to everyone, including himself, that she would be a game-changer. Now that she is pursuing her passion and excelling, he feels incredibly proud of her.
