The sophomore quarterback completed 21 of his 25 attempts for 333 yards and three touchdowns while being under pressure on 51.6 percent of his dropbacks. Purdy completed nine of his 11 attempts for 124 yards and a 113.6 passer rating under pressure.

Purdy only missed one pass, completing 13 of 14 attempts of 10 yards or fewer. On passes 11 to 19 yards downfield, the Iowa State product completed seven of his eight attempts, and on passes of 20 or more yards downfield, Purdy completed two of his three passes for 116 yards and a touchdown.

Since Week 8, Purdy has averaged 12.1 yards per attempt, far ahead of Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, who averaged 9.2 yards per attempt.
