This weekend, an NFL first is about to happen at Sofi Stadium.

What is it?

Gotta be the QBs, right?  Purdy, as an NFL draft LAST pick in 2022, vs Stafford, an overall FIRST pick in 2009, is the first meeting of a Mr Irrelevant vs a #1 pick.  That will happen a few more times if Purdy remains the 49ers starter but I believe this is a first. 

I'm surprised it didn't happen last year but a quick look at last year's schedule seems to show otherwise. For instance, Kyler Murray (#1 pick in 2018) didn't start in the Arizona/SF meeting on Jan 8, 2023.
