Brock Purdy, Kyle Shanahan's viral locker-room chat explained by 49ers coach

After the 49ers' 35-7 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, coach Kyle Shanahan was seen sitting in the Levi's Stadium locker room having a quiet conversation with Brock Purdy.

The rookie had just made history as the first quarterback to beat future Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady in his first NFL start. Shanahan shared Monday that he was checking in with Purdy after his noteworthy performance.

“I was talking to him about how the week went,” Shanahan said on a conference call with local media.
