Brock Purdy remains an undervalued option in fantasy football for 2026
Summary

Brock Purdy, quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers, is viewed as an underrated asset in fantasy football heading into the 2026 season. Despite limited appearances due to injury last year, Purdy averaged 19.7 fantasy points per game and has consistently ranked among the top quarterbacks since becoming a starter. He is currently being drafted around QB13, lower than his finishing positions have suggested. Analysts believe Purdy has the potential to perform at a QB1 level again, particularly if the 49ers' offensive dynamics change, allowing for increased passing volume.
