The San Francisco 49ers and quarterback Brock Purdy agreed to a massive, five-year contract extension late last week, tying the 25-year-old to the Bay Area through the 2030 NFL season.
As details of the pact continue to trickle in, on top of the $181 million in guaranteed money that Purdy is set to receive, the signal caller has also been given a no-trade clause throughout the entirety of the contract, Mike Kadlick of SI reports. This according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.
As Garafolo points out, not only is Purdy getting a massive pay bump, but he also has full control over whatever his future holds. Should San Francisco decide they want to trade him, Purdy would retain decision-making power over his next destination—having to approve of wherever he is sent.
Not a bad deal for the former final pick, a.k.a. Mr. Irrelevant, of the 2022 NFL draft.
