San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is using the club’s much-needed bye week to stay physically active on his fiancée’s farm.
Jenna Brandt, Purdy’s fiancée, posted some Instagram photos of Purdy hard at work on her family’s farm in Iowa. On her story, she also shared a video of Purdy harvesting corn:
Purdy and Brandt announced their engagement on Instagram in July. The second-year quarterback proposed during their trip in Saint Cloud, Florida.
The past 11 months have been awfully special for Purdy, who went from little-known third-stringer to the new starting quarterback of the 49ers. He took over for Jimmy Garoppolo late last season after the latter suffered a season-ending foot injury.
Purdy crushed Tom Brady’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers in his debut, finishing 5-0 in the regular season before helping the 49ers to an NFC Championship appearance. Unfortunately, Purdy had to leave that game early with a torn UCL in his throwing elbow, and the 49ers were no match for the Philadelphia Eagles without their star QB.

The 49ers started off 2023 on a red-hot note, winning each of their first five games. But the offense has struggled over the past three weeks, and the 49ers have dropped each of their last three contests.
With star wideout Deebo Samuel and All-Pro offensive lineman Trent Williams battling injuries, the bye week couldn’t have come at a better time for the 49ers. They’ll try to end the losing skid in Week 10 when they visit Trevor Lawrence’s Jacksonville Jaguars.
