Brock Purdy to Jordan Love: The 2024 NFL season’s most important figures

From Brock Purdy to Jordan Love, Sky Sports NFL presenter Neil Reynolds picks out the most important figures heading into the 2024 season; watch Atlanta Falcons @ Pittsburgh Steelers from 6pm on Sunday, followed by Dallas Cowboys @ Cleveland Browns from 9.25pm

When I was asked to come up with six important and influential figures for the 2024 season, I could have done 26 in this league full of stars. But I’ve gone with six and cheated with a bonus one… because you can’t have a list like this without Patrick Mahomes…

Brock Purdy – Quarterback, San Francisco 49ers

First up is Brock Purdy, the quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers, who enters a massive year as he sets the stage for a big payday after the season. Purdy has been arguably the best quarterback statistically in the NFL over the last two years.

He has won some big games but lost the biggest of all in the Super Bowl last year, so there is pressure on the 49ers and I think Purdy will be key to their season.

They have so many stars, stars that we are often told carry the quarterback, but the quarterback has to distribute the ball to the likes of Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle. Purdy does that with considerable skill.

I think this is the year he becomes viewed as one of the true elite quarterbacks in the NFL. I think he will actually be the league’s MVP.

Dan Campbell – Head Coach, Detroit Lions

Detroit threw their woeful history out of the window last year to come within 30 minutes of reaching the Super Bowl. They had the 49ers on the ropes, could not finish the job and Dan Campbell suggested immediately his team would play with a target on their backs and things would be much more difficult in 2024.
