When the San Francisco 49ers drafted Brock Purdy, very few NFL fans knew his name.
Purdy was a great quarterback at Iowa State, but he wasn’t highly touted as a prospect for whatever reason.
This caused him to fall to the last pick in the seventh round of the NFL Draft, where the 49ers scooped him up.
Purdy’s life has been forever changed since that day.
He got an opportunity to start the 2022 season, and after he led the 49ers to an impressive playoff run, the team knew that they had something special in this kid.
While Purdy is well-known for his prowess on the football field, fans also tend to keep a close eye on him off the field.
Purdy recently got married, and it appears he is on his honeymoon with his wife.
As illustrated by the photos Purdy’s wife posted on Instagram, it appears this couple is having the time of their lives.

From Mr. Irrelevant to a married man who just appeared in the Super Bowl, Purdy’s NFL career is more significant than anyone could have imagined, especially the 49ers.
They were likely anticipating him to be a backup for them, and given his draft stock, he was never supposed to be anything more than that in the NFL.
What’s next for Purdy and the 49ers remains to be seen.
They have been a top team in the NFC for several seasons but haven’t found a way to win another Super Bowl lately.
What will this team have to do to reach the pinnacle of NFL success?
