49ers fans better hope Brock Purdy is just getting the interceptions out of his system now because his training camp performance so far has been pretty uninspiring.
The 49ers figure to be one of the top teams in the NFL this year and a lot of it has to do with their talent on the offensive and defensive side of the ball. One of the biggest concerns for critics of San Fran has been the quarterback position and whether or not Brock Purdy can continue the magic he had a year ago.
But so far in camp, it’s been pretty bad as according to reports, Purdy has thrown an alarming 10 interceptions so far in camp, including two during Wednesday’s practice:
The news comes on the heels of last week’s joint practice with the Las Vegas Raiders, where Purdy threw three interceptions to the Raiders defense.
It’s important to note that this is Purdy’s first full training camp as a potential starter, as he was buried on the depth chart last season, and he didn’t struggle much with accuracy in the regular season. He threw a total of 4 interceptions in his 5 starts.
The coaching staff has given the nod to Brock Purdy to be the team’s starter for their Week 1 game against the Steelers, but the accuracy issues in camp will be something to keep an eye on as the season approaches.
The 49ers also have Trey Lance and Sam Darnold on the roster if they have to do the inevitable..
