A buddy and I were talking last night, and we came to the conclusion that it's funny or sad or something that Brock Purdy is getting paid less than a million a year. I mean, compared to me, that's huge. But compared to other quarterbacks who take their teams to the Super Bowl, it's nothing. He's something like the 33rd highest player on his team. There are only 22 starters. 24, if you count the punter and kicker. So there are at least 9 back-ups on his team getting paid more than him. And he's something like the 55th highest paid quarterback in the NFL. He's getting paid more than about 7 back-ups in the NFL - all the other backup quarterbacks are getting paid more than him.
What's Joe Flacco getting paid, for 5? 6 games? I bet it's more than Brock Purdy.
