Former Iowa State quarterback Brock Purdy says he is right on track following offseason elbow surgery.
Purdy replaced injured quarterbacks Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo and led the San Francisco 49ers to five straight regular season wins before suffering the injury early in a loss in the NFC Championship game. It is the first time in his career he has had to rehab after surgery.
Purdy underwent surgery in March and hopes to be ready for the start of the upcoming season.
Purdy has resumed throwing a few times each week and hopes to make steady progress.
In eight starts last season Purdy threw for 16 touchdowns and just four interceptions.
