Purdy's contract extension is one of the main items on the offseason to-do list for San Francisco. He is nearing the end of one of the NFL's biggest bargains for the 49ers, with one year left on the rookie deal he signed as the last pick of the 2022 draft.
Purdy has made less than $1 million a year for his first three seasons and is set to get a small raise in 2025 to about $5.2 million under the league's proven performance escalator for making the Pro Bowl last season.
After finishing fourth in MVP voting in his first full season as a starter in 2023, Purdy was far less productive this season as injuries to several key playmakers had a major impact on the Niners offense.
But the belief in Purdy from the organization remains as strong as it has been and Purdy has talked about his desire to remain in San Francisco.
Lynch addressed several other topics during his availability on Wednesday:
Samuel made the request in a season-ending meeting with Lynch and coach Kyle Shanahan and the Niners have had talks with other teams about a possible deal.
After an All-Pro season in 2021 with 1,770 yards from scrimmage and 14 touchdowns in 2021, Samuel's production has dropped after he signed a three-year, $71.6 million extension the following offseason that runs through the 2025 season.
Lynch had positive news on the status of stars Christian McCaffrey and Trent Williams, who missed significant time with injuries last season. He said that McCaffrey is doing "great" in his recovery from a season-ending knee injury that sidelined him in Week 13 and he should be ready for at least part of the offseason program.
Williams missed the final seven games last season with an ankle injury but is committed to returning in 2025 at age 37. Williams has been one of the top left tackles in the NFL since joining San Francisco in 2020 and is a key cog in the Niners' offense.
The Niners had a bit of a surprise when it was announced on Tuesday that Mick Lombardi was being promoted from senior offensive assistant to quarterbacks coach to replace Brian Griese.
"He had given it some thought on the front end and at the time he gave us a three-year commitment," Lynch said.
"He's a very principled guy. ... I don't want to speak for Brian, but other things were pulling at him and respect that he made a tough decision but one he thought was best for him and his family."
