Brock Purdy snubbed in NFL coach, exec QB rankings

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was left off ESPN's annual top 10 NFL quarterback rankings for 2026, landing instead in the honorable mentions after a 2025 season in which he missed half the schedule to a turf toe injury but posted some of the most efficient numbers at the position.

ESPN surveyed more than 70 league executives, coaches and scouts for the rankings, published Monday. Purdy didn't crack the top 10, sliding in among honorable mentions that included Jayden Daniels, Jordan Love, Baker Mayfield, Trevor Lawrence and Jalen Hurts.
