The San Francisco 49ers' $265 million quarterback has not gotten off to a good start at mandatory minicamp practice ... but it isn't all bad news quite yet.
The San Francisco 49ers' $265 million quarterback has not gotten off to a good start at mandatory minicamp practice ... but it isn't all bad news quite yet. originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It's June. The San Francisco 49ers have only had one day of mandatory minicamp. Advertisement Some will understand that players are using this time to knock off rust from the offseason. But others will overanalyze each repetition and judge the good and bad, however major or minor. Some of the bad, so far? Quarterback Brock Purdy, the Niners' new highest-paid player with a contract averaging a $53 million salary signed a few weeks ago. Reports out of San Fran's camp say that Purdy threw three interceptions during the team portion of Tuesday's practice. 49ers fans may want to cover their eyes and ears, but this struggle could be defended as it's something we've seen before. "All three passes were forced either to receivers who weren't open or spots where defenders were waiting," beat writer Grant Cohn explained. Advertisement "This is how Purdy practices. He often throws interceptions because he's trying to figure out what he can get away with during real games. Plus, he's not a great practice player. He's a gamer and a playmaker who performs his best when the bullets are live because his ability to scramble and buy time is his best attribute. And he's not afraid to let it rip, which is why he throws so many picks." There's some honesty both ways here. Throwing three interceptions during a not-so-intense practice isn't very good ... but this behavior from Purdy is sometimes unavoidable in practice. He thrives on the improvisation that can only be felt in game environments. During these set programs, he doesn't have the chance to make a play out of nothing when there isn't a strong rush. So, it may not be abnormal to see him forcing tough throws even when there is something easier in an attempt to replicate that difficulty he thrives in. Advertisement That no-fear mentality could still be looked at as a positive. It's better to have a quarterback who is confident in his ability and decision-making rather than passive. As long as this isn't an every-down occurrence, 49ers fans don't have much to stress about. However, with how the 49ers' season went last year, it makes sense why fans might be skeptical. Last season, Purdy saw a considerable drop off in passing numbers. He threw for less yards and touchdowns and his completion percentage lowered from 69.4 to 65. He threw just one more interception last season than the year before (12 in 2024 to 11 in 2023). Health played a major factor in the 49ers disappointing 6-11 season, with Purdy himself managing to play with a bum shoulder toward the end of the year. He was inactive for the Niners' Week 10 and Week 18 games. Advertisement Outside of receiver Brandon Aiyuk, San Francisco is expected to welcome more luck on that front this season. He's hoping for a bounce-back season, and while this was a rough day at the office, Brock Purdy - at just 25 years old - hasn't lost his Pro-Bowl ability. There are plenty of practices until Week 1 for San Francisco's star signal-caller to get his feet under him.

£200k-a-week contract offer will seal SENSATIONAL striker deal
Liverpool have got plans to move on from Darwin Nunez this summer. The Uruguayan striker only managed five Premier League goals during their title-winning campaign and has largely fallen out of favour with head coach Arne Slot. Speculation has been rife over the last few weeks that the 25-year-old will be sold - as long as Richard Hughes' demands are met. It appears £70m will do the trick for potential suitors although Nunez is being selective about his next destination. Shop the LFC Store The new LFC x Air Max range 🔥 Nike x Air Max LFC x Nike Air Max Advertisement Buy Now LFC Retro Shirts LFC Retro Shirts Buy Now Home Jersey LFC Kits Buy Now LFC Nike Training LFC Nike Training Buy Now Al-Hilal have been knocked back by the No9 - with Nunez holding out for a club in one of Europe's top leagues. It could be AC Milan or Napoli in Italy - and Atletico Madrid have also been reported as suitors. And if Darwin leaves, it would leave a gap up top for a new forward. Top of the list is reportedly Victor Osimhen. Transfer talk has increased in recent weeks over the Nigerian - who is coming off a sensational season in the Turkish Super Lig with Galatasaray. Liverpool like Victor Osimhen The 26-year-old scored 37 times in 41 games overall for Cimbom - helping fire them to the league and Turkish Cup double. Napoli still own Osimhen's playing rights - with the player having spent the season on loan in Turkey. Advertisement He is only under contract until 2026 - meaning Osimhen is available for a fraction of his true transfer value this summer. That sum is reported to be €75m - not a million miles off what the Reds are seeking for Nunez. But the sticking point has always been Osimhen's salary. Indeed it's been previously reported that the Super Eagles sensation was seeking £400k per week from his next club. However, there appears to be a thaw in that stance as Osimhen makes sacrifices to land a Premier League move. © IMAGO Osimhen salary demands SLASHED In an item discussing Manchester United's interest in the former Lille frontman, Foot Mercato claims that Osimhen's salary requests now stand at €12m per year. Advertisement 'Talks have resumed very recently under the conditions discussed a few weeks ago, namely a salary of €12 million for the player and compensation of €75 million including bonuses for Napoli, the club that owns the player,' writes Sebastien Denis. That equates to around £200k per week - HALF of what was previously out there. So if Liverpool can conduct an outbound deal for Nunez - who earns around £140k per week - it means a deal for Osimhen won't break the bank. Indeed there is a tantalising prospect that Hughes could SWAP Osimhen for Nunez in a sensational deal with Napoli. Nonetheless this latest update suggests that Osimhen is no longer out of reach due to his pay packet.

F1: The Academy Lifts The Visor On Abbi Pulling's Championship Run
The effect of Netflix's Drive To Survive on Formula 1 was seismic. The sport had stagnated, stuck in its ways, catering to the select few. Then the streaming giant ripped the curtain back on motorsport's elite world and exploded its global popularity, driven as much by character arcs as championship points. Now, the hope is that F1: The Academy, produced by Reese Witherspoon's Hello Sunshine for Netflix, can do the same for its all-female junior series. Released earlier this month, the series flips the camera onto the grit and pressure behind the 2024 F1 Academy season. Among its protagonists is 22-year-old Abbi Pulling, who claimed the championship in dominant fashion, but the series lets viewers into her most private world, from moments of grief and loss to the work that powered her rise. When filming a documentary, the cameras don't just capture the podium. They linger. Post-race. In the gym. At the kitchen table. When Abbi Pulling agreed to open the door to her world, it wasn't without hesitation. "This is really sensitive to me, they knew that I was all tentative about the filming," she said. 'But I think it was necessary.' She wasn't alone in that vulnerability. The documentary doesn't just show Pulling the driver. It shows Abbi the daughter, the granddaughter. Her family, especially her father and late grandmother, are woven deeply into her story. That was the line she hesitated to cross. Letting cameras into those sacred spaces. 'It was a really emotional part of the season. I got off the plane from Jeddah and had to go straight to my nan's funeral. It was really sad… and it was weird to kind of share that,' said Pulling. 'I've barely ever seen my dad cry,' she added. 'To see him cry and to see that moment [the championship win] for him… I've never seen it from his perspective before.' What the series captures is more than just a racer chasing results. It's a young woman navigating what it means to be seen. Her grief. Her grit. Her growth. 'I didn't know how it was going to be received,' she said. 'People are going to get an opinion on you that have never seen you or come across you before in this seven-part series… and it's quite scary.' For Pulling, the 2023 campaign wasn't the golden year it was supposed to be. She entered the season as one of the title favourites but found herself just scraping into the top five. The pressure, the expectations, the weight of needing to win every race. It all caught up. 'I did a lot of work with a guy called Martin from Gazing Performance Systems… to understand what I did wrong, what was in and out of my control,' said Pulling. 'I focused on so many things that weren't even in my hands.' And with that work came a new perspective. Less obsession, more precision. Less pressure, more perspective. 'I just took every race as it came,' she said. And it worked. Pulling didn't step off the podium once in 2024. As champion of F1 Academy, she secured a seat up the ladder in the GB3 Championship— a series with quicker cars, more downforce, and tougher competition. "The competition is really tough, and the car is bigger, faster," she said. "It's a large challenge, and it's a lot to get used to." Silverstone was an incredible debut; she qualified fourth and finished fifth. Since then, it's been about working through technical issues, rough weekends, and pushing through the noise. 'The last two results at Zandvoort and Spa are definitely not where I know that I'm capable of finishing,' said Pulling. 'It's tough but I really hope to continue the season and keep progressing and get back on the form we were when we had my debut at Silverstone.' The goal is still crystal clear—Formula 1. But Pulling knows the route isn't straight. It's unpredictable, and dependent on more than just talent. It requires backing, exposure, and a bit of luck and that's where the docuseries steps in. When you're one of few women in a male-dominated sport, being seen isn't always as simple as it sounds. And letting the world in through Netflix's lens isn't just about telling your story. It's also about visibility. It's about opportunity. 'No other junior drivers have ever had this kind of access and exposure,' Pulling said. 'Hopefully it can help propel us. And get the financial support we need. Show brands that there's a conversation about women in sport—not just motorsport.' F1: The Academy offers raw, emotional access to drivers like Pulling. But it also packages that vulnerability into a polished product, one that serves the broader brand of Formula 1, eager to prove its inclusivity. At times the show skirts past the context, rarely interrogating the actual barriers that hold female athletes back, whether that be the funding disparities or the lack of support in the grassroots. We see women fighting for space in a system that still wasn't built with them in mind. What we don't always see is the system itself. It's not that the series failed. It's that it plays it safe. Instead of confronting the tension between gender, merit, and visibility in elite motorsport, it often opts for the neater arc: heartbreak, hustle, hard-won success. Next race, next episode, roll credits. But the reality is messier, perhaps more political. And while exposure matters, it's not the same as equity. Cameras won't solve the sponsorship gap. Or reverse years of institutional doubt about whether women belong on the grid. Visibility helps massively. But only if it leads to tangible support. As managing director of F1 Academy Susie Wolff said, "This isn't a moment. It's a movement."
