Brock Purdy gets big support from 49ers teammate: 'We've got a quarterback'

Brock Purdy got a big vote of confidence from teammate Nick Bosa after the San Francisco 49ers topped the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, 35-7.

Brock Purdy delivered another valiant performance for the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday as his three touchdowns led the team to a 35-7 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The last pick of the NFL Draft, dubbed "Mr. Irrelevant," appeared to impress teammate Nick Bosa as the star defensive end heaped praise on the former Iowa State standout.

"We've got a quarterback," Bosa said, via 49ers Webzone. "I had a lot of confidence in him, but obviously it's the NFL and you've got to go perform. And he did that pretty darn good."

Offensive lineman Mike McGlinchey praised Purdy’s professionalism.

"He's a very serious professional," McGlinchey said. "He grinds over everything. He has since he's gotten here in April. No matter what position he was in, whether he wasn't dressing, was the second string, or was the guy in training camp that everybody kind of counted out, he's been a pro's pro – as mature of a young quarterback as I've ever seen. It's paying off in dividends now."

Purdy won in his first NFL start and his second appearance after coming in for an injured Jimmy Garoppolo last week.

He finished 16 of 21 with 185 passing yards. He had a touchdown pass to Christian McCaffrey and Brandon Aiyuk and ran one in himself.
