There are athletes with superstar doppelgangers. Detroit Lions QB Jared Goff bears a resemblance to actor Ryan Gossling. Former Tremendous Bowl-winning signal-caller Nick Foles kinda seems like Napolean Dynamite megastar Jon Heder.
However in relation to Brock Purdy, some other folks on social media are evaluating him appearance-wise to Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated former President John F. Kennedy.
And all through media availability ahead of Tremendous Bowl LVIII, a reporter requested the San Francisco 49ers QB about his meant lookalike.
“Have you ever ever heard that ahead of?” the reporter requested.
“I haven’t that’s my first time listening to it,” Purdy responded.
When requested his ideas, he paused and responded, “Yeah, I don’t know.”
Should you slept via your historical past categories, Oswald shot and killed JFK on Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas, and the assassination spawned conspiracy theories and films.
The comparability used to be first made on X/Twitter by way of a person named Josh Chavis.
“Holy s—t. Been making an attempt to determine who Brock Purdy seems like for the ultimate 2 years and it’s Lee Harvey Oswald,” Chavin tweeted.
Purdy is in his 2nd yr with the San Francisco 49ers. He used to be famously the ultimate participant decided on within the 2022 NFL Draft — Mr. Irrevelant.
This season, Purdy guided the Niners to a 12-5 report. He threw for 4,280 yards — a brand new franchise report — 31 TDs, and 11 INTs whilst main the league in QBR (72.7). Purdy is an MVP finalist.
San Francisco nearly went into this season with Tom Brady on the helm, if it will persuade the seven-time Tremendous Bowl winner to unretire once more.
