Brock Purdy’s Contract, Salary, and Net Worth: How Much Is the 49ers Star Earning in 2026?

When Brock Purdy first ascended to the starting quarterback role for the San Francisco 49ers and found immediate success, his contract quickly became one of the biggest bargains in sports. As the final pick of the 2022 NFL Draft, he earned less than a million dollars when he entered the league.

Guiding the 49ers to an NFC Championship Game as a rookie and then reaching the Super Bowl the following season put him squarely in line for a new contract. An extension always seemed likely, particularly as his personal emergence mirrored the team’s standing as a consistent NFC contender.

What Is Brock Purdy’s Contract?

Even though the 49ers could have waited before making a move, they decided to finalize Purdy’s new contract this summer, doing so in an offseason where the organization made several major changes to the roster.

Once it became clear that an extension was coming, the only real question was the number. Since Patrick Mahomes’ 10-year, $450 million contract was signed, the average annual salary for quarterbacks has steadily increased.

MVP quarterbacks such as Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson, along with consistent Pro Bowlers like Jared Goff and Joe Burrow, have all secured deals worth more than $50 million per year. The 2024 offseason also saw Jordan Love and Trevor Lawrence land massive extensions of their own.

Dak Prescott then reset the market entirely by becoming the highest-paid player in NFL history with a four-year, $240 million contract. When stacked against those names, Purdy’s résumé with the 49ers is every bit as strong and arguably even more accomplished.

As a result, there was real speculation about his contract. Ultimately, a deal was reached, with the news arriving on May 20, 2025, of a five-year, $265 million extension.

40% of the total sum ($100 million) was guaranteed to Purdy at the time of signing, with a full no-trade clause the only additional caveat in the former Pro Bowler’s deal.

What Is Purdy’s Salary?

Thanks to his new contract, Purdy is set to earn an average annual value of $53 million. However, that number isn’t distributed equally between the years.

For instance, in 2025, he’s slated to earn a base salary of $1,100,000, a signing bonus of $40,000,000, and a workout bonus of $8,820. That equates to a cap hit of $9,128,073, which remains remarkably low compared to the other quarterbacks in the league.

That number is 25th among quarterbacks, behind names like Anthony Richardson, Russell Wilson, and Sam Darnold.

What Is Purdy’s Net Worth?

According to most online sources, Purdy is in his fourth year as an NFL player and has a net worth of $20 million. That turnaround is bizarre for a player whose previous contract had an average annual value under $1 million.

However, the number is only expected to increase in the coming years as his new extension takes effect, and his salary significantly rises. His salary as a quarterback isn’t the only way he’s earning money, though.

His popularity and success in the position have also made him a darling for media deals and brand endorsements. He already has partnerships with Alaska Airlines, Buffalo Wild Wings, Ariat, Pioneer Seeds, and John Deere.

Most notably, he signed a deal with Toyota, a monumental move as he became the first player under their banner after the company secured a vehicle sponsorship deal with the NFL in October 2023.
