Brock Purdy: The Ravens lost a great learning experience 

49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is on track to play this Sunday against the Chiefs despite sitting out the team’s Christmas Eve loss to the Ravens, and that means he’ll have a chance to show how he can handle as tough an outing as he had .

NFL. Purdy threw four interceptions for the first time in his career and the 49ers lost at home despite being favored against the top-ranked AFC.

The weeks leading up to the game cemented the 49ers as the favorite to win the Super Bowl, so the loss was humbling for the second-year player, who is still going through a lot for his first time at the professional level. .

On Thursday, Purdy shared what that loss taught him about how he should approach the future.

“It’s a great learning experience just in terms of not paying attention to what’s going on around you and what’s being said,” Purdy said, via 49ersWebzone.com. “Instead, execute in the moment, make the right reads, be consistent, protect the ball, all those things.

It’s such a good learning experience. And it doesn’t mean I’m perfect. That’s football, you are, but for me, it was too big quarterback.

When things are going well, people can say nice things and it’s easy to become complacent. But you have to put in, work, keep that chip on your shoulder and still prove to yourself that you still have to show your teammates every week that you’re the man.

So I must have learned something. Purdy has a chance to bounce back this week, and the playoffs will provide more opportunities to show he can use what he’s learned as a springboard to more rewarding performances on bigger stages.
