Brock Purdy’s fiancée shared a heartwarming reaction to the San Francisco 49ers quarterback making it to the Super Bowl following a come-from-behind performance against the Detroit Lions on Sunday night.
Purdy, in his second pro season after being drafted as the final pick of the 2022 NFL Draft, has exceeded expectations, leading his team to the final hurdle and dominating the MVP conversation for a stretch in 2023.
He orchestrated a 17-point comeback in the second half of Sunday’s game after the Niners trailed 24-7 at halftime, ultimately securing a win that propelled them to the biggest game on the football calendar.
Similar to his performance against the Green Bay Packers in the Divisional Round, Purdy shone in the second half, steering the team down the field on significant drives. His fiancée, Jenna Brandt, expressed her joy on Instagram, celebrating the achievement and expressing how proud she is of the former Iowa State quarterback.
Purdy is now gearing up for the biggest challenge of his young career as he faces Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl.
It would be a remarkable journey if he could transition from Mr. Irrelevant to Super Bowl winner in just two seasons.
With the NFL season concluding in a few weeks, attention will likely shift to the significant others of the players, making the anticipation for the Super Bowl even more exciting. Two weeks might feel like a long wait for the pinnacle game of the NFL season.
