Brock Purdy took over for Jimmy Garoppolo as the San Francisco 49ers starting quarterback in 2022, when Purdy was just a rookie entering the league as the last pick in the seventh round of that year's draft.
Now, after Sunday's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, Purdy has passed Garoppolo in passing yards with the 49ers. In 57 games and 55 starts, Garoppolo passed for 13,599 yards with San Francisco, and Purdy, in 57 games and 53 starts, has passed for 13,665.
The 26-year-old now has the seventh-most passing yards in franchise history, and unless he plays some truly terrible football to end the season, he won't stop there.
Purdy needs 616 more yards to pass Alex Smith for sixth, 2,352 yards to pass Y.A. Tittle for fifth and 2,744 yards to pass Jeff Garcia for fourth.
It seems unlikely that Purdy will climb all the way to fourth by the end of the season, as he needs to averaged 305 yards per game to do that. However, it's very likely that he'll pass Smith for sixth, and it's feasible that he could pass Tittle for fifth near the end of the year.
