Kyle Shanahan is pulling out all the stops to build up his quarterback Brock Purdy before the highly anticipated Super Bowl game. Purdy, who wears the number 13 jersey, has the chance to etch his name in history by winning the Super Bowl for the San Francisco 49ers. After falling short last season, Purdy led his team to victory in the NFC and now has the opportunity to secure a place of honor with a championship ring.
In the lead-up to the game against the Kansas City Chiefs, Kyle Shanahan, the head coach of the 49ers, showered praise on Purdy. Shanahan described him as one of the most modest players he has ever encountered and credited his parents for instilling such admirable qualities in him. Shanahan believes that Purdy’s confidence and humility are rooted in his strong faith, making him a truly exceptional individual.
This is not the first time that Shanahan has spoken highly of Purdy. Last week, the CEO of the team revealed that Shanahan has regarded Purdy as the best since day one. From the moment he joined the team as a rookie, Shanahan recognized Purdy’s potential and has consistently fostered his growth and development.
During an interview, Shanahan shared a specific incident that highlighted Purdy’s character. It occurred during Purdy’s first game against the Miami Dolphins last year. Despite making some mistakes in practice leading up to the game, Purdy approached Shanahan with unwavering confidence, assuring him that he would perform well when it mattered most.
The partnership between Purdy and Shanahan has been incredibly successful for the 49ers. They have reached the NFC Championship twice, emerging victorious in their second attempt. However, their ultimate goal of winning the Super Bowl remains unfulfilled.
