San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy has a big fifth season ahead with growing expectations, while he has growing responsibilities at home.
Purdy and his wife, Jenna Purdy, recently announced their second baby via Instagram on Wednesday. Jenna Purdy wrote, “another blessing on the way” and “baby #2 coming” in the post. The couple, who wed in 2024, has a one-year-old daughter, Millie Joleen Purdy.
Last year, Brock Purdy talked about being a new father at training camp. He just signed his five-year, $265 million contract earlier that year, too.

“I still really can’t describe it,” Purdy told reporters. “Just how awesome it is coming home and seeing little baby girl and holding her and her sleeping on me. There’s nothing better. No gift can compare. And seeing Jenna (Purdy) and how she’s been awesome as a mom, just all of it all together. It’s so good.”
Purdy won’t have the sleepless nights quite yet, but he will look to keep opposing defensive coordinators sleepless as the season nears. He led the 49ers to the NFC Divisional Round before the eventual Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks came into Levi's Stadium and won.

Purdy could take the 49ers further this season, and it will behoove him to do so in a year that could be a make-or-break one. He completed 69.4% of his passes for 2,167 yards and 20 touchdowns versus 10 interceptions amid injury.
Since the 49ers are paying him an all-time high for a quarterback in franchise history, he can’t afford a full repeat of 2025 or 2024 for that matter. Purdy was an MVP contender in 2023 when he led the team to the Super Bowl, but he hasn’t been on par since, with less than 4,000 yards and only 20 touchdowns each of the past two years.
