The 49ers almost recruited a new QB — right out of retirement. Ben Roethlisberger said that after two injured quarterbacks, the Niners made their bid.
Brock Purdy's unlikely run as the San Francisco 49ers' starting quarterback almost never happened, according to a controversial QB who said they reached out to him late last season.
"I had discussions," Roethlisberger told Mark Madden on WXDX-FM on Tuesday."I don't want to sit here and say that I was going or anything like that. They called to gauge interest, OK? I had conversations with my agent, with my wife, my family, prayed a lot about it. And I'd be lying if I didn't say there wasn't, like, a small part of me that was intrigued."
Roethlisberger also had a checkered off-field history in his career, including two accusations of sexual assault.

What followed was one of the unlikeliest stretches in NFL history, as Purdy — the last pick of the 2022 NFL Draft — and the 49ers were within one win of the Super Bowl. Purdy sustained an elbow injury in the NFC Championship Game, the recovery from which will keep him out for most of San Francisco's offseason.
