49ers accused of leaking Brock Purdy's $60,000,000 contract demands amid QB's 2024 slump, by Colin Cowherd - Source: Imagn
Colin Cowherd had a bold take on the news coming out that San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is demanding a contract this offseason in the range of $60 million per year. The player is still on his rookie contract and is slated for a deal this offseason. The value that he is reportedly demanding will make him the best-paid player in league history, matching what the Cowboys are paying Dak Prescott.
Since the season is not over, Colin Cowherd thinks the 49ers leaked the story to tamp down Brock Purdy's expectations. He said,
“There was a story, and it came out today, and it’s almost as if San Francisco leaked it, that he’s not going to take a Baker (Mayfield) deal, he’s not going to take a (Sam) Darnold deal, that he wants in the $50 million range. When I saw the story coming out … my take was, why is that story coming out now?”
