Football Outsiders’ failed completions metric offers another Brock Purdy endorsement

After two days of contrasting comments from John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan at the NFL owners meetings, the 49ers’ quarterback situation is still unclear.

Brock Purdy is the “leader in the clubhouse” and he may be ready for training camp, but there’s a chance he may have to wait until Week 4, giving Trey Lance the chance to make the job his own.

Lance will get first-team reps in OTAs and minicamp, but he’ll have to split them with Sam Darnold, whom the 49ers signed to a one-year deal this month.

Clear as mud.
