Brock Purdy can tie Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes with 6 playoff wins through 4 NFL seasons
Our Summary
If the San Francisco 49ers defeat the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday, quarterback Brock Purdy will achieve his sixth postseason win in his four-year NFL career. This would place him alongside Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes, who each secured six playoff victories within their first four seasons, marking the second-highest total in NFL history for that timeframe. Only Russell Wilson has more, with seven playoff wins in his first four seasons. A victory over the Seahawks could allow Purdy to match Wilson's record in the NFC Championship Game and potentially set a new record with eight playoff wins by the end of his fourth season, culminating in Super Bowl LX. Initially drafted as the last pick in the 2022 NFL draft, Purdy was competing for a third-string position behind Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo. However, by the end of his rookie season, he had become the starting quarterback for three playoff games, securing two victories.
