When 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said QB Brock Purdy was excused for personal reasons, it was a sign that Purdy and his wife Jenna had some good news to share.
The San Francisco 49ers excused franchise quarterback Brock Purdy from practice Friday for “personal reasons,” according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.
On Sunday, once Purdy returned, Shanahan said, “Yeah, Brock had some family stuff yesterday, all good news. I’m sure he’ll tell you guys when he talks to you guys next. But yeah, Brock was back and didn’t miss a beat, and it was a good day off for him.”
Early Monday morning, Brock’s wife, Jenna, posted on Instagram a picture of her and Brock holding their newborn baby, captioned, “Life couldn’t be sweeter.”
A big congratulations go out to the Purdy family. The Purdy’s timing couldn’t have worked out better after Brock’s massive $265 million contract extension this past spring.
Purdy is likely to speak to the media over the next couple of days, so it shouldn’t be long before we hear from the new dad.
