Brock Purdy drops hilarious metaphor to describe Trent Williams protecting him

Brock Purdy drops hilarious metaphor to describe Trent Williams protecting him originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

The $265 million man “needs his binky.”

49ers quarterback Brock Purdy joined “Bussin With The Boys” on Monday and touched on what it’s like to have offensive tackle Trent Williams covering his blind side.

“He’s my little safety blanket,” Purdy explained. “I’m like, ‘I need my binky and I need him to be in the game.’ “

An ankle injury limited Williams to playing in only 10 games last season, seven fewer than Purdy would’ve liked.

“Last year he got hurt at the end … it’s just different,” Purdy said.

The Iowa State product wasn’t knocking the rest of San Francisco’s offensive line. Williams just is on another level.

“Having Trent in, as a Hall of Famer,” Purdy said. “You watch his run game and the moves that he makes, and you’re like, ‘What the heck?’ “

Going back to his days in Washington, the 14-year NFL veteran consistently has shown his ability to protect the quarterback.

“He does this ninja move thing, and then pushes guys in the ground, and then, outside of that, just pass and stuff, he’s locked down over there,” Purdy said. “And so, year after year, for me, blindside as a quarterback, right-handed quarterback, knowing that my left side is good, I can’t even describe to you. It’s like a sense of freedom.”

Purdy’s “binky” is turning 37 this month, so a new pacifier will need to emerge on the offensive line sooner rather than later.

Brock Purdy's 49ers loyalty tested while answering great hypothetical question

Brock Purdy's 49ers loyalty tested while answering great hypothetical question originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

Win one Super Bowl with the 49ers or three with the Seattle Seahawks?

That is the question Will Compton asked 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy when he joined the most recent episode of “Bussin’ With The Boys.”

But the star 49ers quarterback would not be pulled to the dark side.

“No, I’m going Niners, bro,” Purdy said after Compton asked the question.

Taylor Lewan and Compton continued to test Purdy’s loyalty as they followed up and challenged his answer but the 25-year-old continued to shoot them down.

“Really, dude, shut up,” Purdy said while laughing. “Don’t try to get me, dude. No, we’re not doing that. Bang bang, all the way.”

The “Boys” tried but Purdy — with his new $265 million contract — is loyal to the soil. And luckily for 49ers fans, he isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

Brock Purdy still wishes the best for Trey Lance

08 July 2025

49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was an afterthought when he was drafted with the final pick in 2022. It took injuries to Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo before he saw the field, and after that, Lance and Garoppolo became expendable.

Lance, the third overall pick in 2021, lasted through training camp in 2023 before the Cowboys unwisely sent a fourth-round pick to the 49ers for him.

"It's tough, because Trey and I are tight, dude," Purdy said during a recent appearance on the Bussin' With The Boys podcast, via David Bonilla of 49erswebzone.com. "Absolutely, we're boys, and we're bros."

Purdy is firmly entrenched as the 49ers' franchise quarterback, having signed a five-year, $265 million extension with the team. Lance already is on his third team, having left the Cowboys to sign a one-year, $2 million deal with the Chargers to back up Justin Herbert.

Lance's career has not gone how anyone expected.

"I wanted nothing but the best for him, and I know he wanted that for me," Purdy said. "But that's just how this business goes and all that. When it did happen, we're about to play our preseason game against the Chargers, and right before the game, they announced [the trade of Lance to the Cowboys], and I didn't really know how to act or what to think. I was just like, 'Man, I hope he can go to Dallas and compete and have a great opportunity.'"

Purdy said he and Lance have never discussed exactly how everything went down, but nothing has changed about Purdy's feelings about Lance.

"We've just texted each other, like, 'Hey, dude, hope you're doing good,' like, randomly throughout the season, offseason, or whatever. 'Hope you're doing good,' this and that. It's really just been that," Purdy said. "We haven't really gotten to the details of, 'Hey, how do you feel with this happening?' or whatever. We just stay away from that."
