Brock Purdy News
Sunday, November 8, 9:05 PM
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy completed 17 of 25 passes for 232 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-17 home win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He added 40 yards and a touchdown on seven carries and threw one interception. It was the Iowa State product's second rushing score of the campaign, and first game with multiple touchdown passes since Week 5. The highlight of his day was a 37-yard dot to wide receiver Jordan Watkins for a touchdown late in the third quarter. Purdy rebounded nicely from a loss to the Falcons preceding the team's bye, in which he threw two picks to just one TD pass. It's his only blemish in what's been a stellar campaign thus far, even with the bevy of injuries to his cast of weapons. Purdy and the 49ers offense will face another beatable matchup their next time out when they travel to take on the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium.

Michael Penix Jr. News
Tuesday, November 10, 6:14 AM
Atlanta Falcons 26-year-old quarterback Michael Penix Jr. continued to struggle in a favorable Week 9 matchup against the Bengals, completing only 20 of 31 pass attempts for 162 yards, one touchdown, and an interception. Surprisingly, he used his legs a bit in this one, which he is not known for, rushing for 50 yards on three carries. This season, Penix has been poor, ranking 28th in dropbacks per game, 20th in EPA per dropback, and 24th in expected fantasy points per game. His schedule also gets much harder over the next few weeks, with matchups against the Chiefs and Vikings on deck. Penix is a dynasty or deep superflex league until further notice.
