Chubba Purdy, Brother of 49ers' Brock, Transfers from Nebraska to San Jose State

Chubba Purdy, brother of San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy, is transferring to San Jose State, the former Nebraska quarterback announced on social media on Sunday.

Purdy spent two season at Florida State and two seasons at Nebraska before announcing his transfer following the conclusion of the season.

Last season, Purdy appeared in all 12 games for Nebraska, starting in four and throwing for 529 yards, two touchdowns, and six interceptions. He also had 353 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.

Now, he'll head to the Mountain West Conference where he'll look to lead the Spartans.

As a transfer prospect, Purdy is considered to be the No. 635 player and the No. 67 quarterback in the portal by 247Sports.

Through his four collegiate seasons, Purdy has yet to find his footing as a regular starter. His few starts at Nebraska came after quarterback Heinrich Haarburg went down with an injury and he was called upon in relief.

Now with San Jose State, he'll be looking to establish himself as QB1 and perhaps find his way on an NFL roster.

The Spartans are coming off a 7-6 season that saw them reach the EasyPost Hawaii Bowl, where they lost to Coastal Carolina. With Purdy under center, San Jose State will be looking to reach a third-straight bowl game.

With Purdy's brother Brock playing nearby for the 49ers, the transition to the West Coast could be much easier as he suits up for San Jose State.
