Brock Purdy born December 27 1999 in Queen Creek Arizona was not always destined for NFL stardom. In fact he entered the 2022 NFL Draft as the ultimate long shot selected with the very last pick earning him the dubious title of Mr. Irrelevant. But Purdy story is one of defying expectations seizing opportunity and proving that sometimes the greatest journeys begin with a little underdog spirit. Growing up in Arizona athletics were in Purdy blood. His father Shawn was a minor league baseball player and his siblings Whitney and Chubba also became accomplished athletes. Brock however excelled in football leading his high school team to a state championship.
