Brock Purdy’s incredible underdog story just keeps getting better.
San Francisco 49ers rookie quarterback Brock Purdy has had a lot on his shoulders in his young career, but in every step of the way, he’s met—and surpassed—every possible expectation. His legend just got even bigger after leading San Francisco to a 41-23 win over the Seattle Seahawks in the opening round of the 2023 NFL playoffs.

Tom Brady may be gearing up for another playoff run with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but the GOAT still can’t escape his final days in New England. On the eve of yet another march to the Super Bowl, Brady was reminded by old pal – and current teammate – Logan Ryan just how bad things ended a few years back with the Patriots.
Ryan, if you recall, intercepted Brady and returned it for a touchdown on what turned out to be one of his final throws in New England in the 2019 AFC Wild Card game.
