The 2021 college football season is sure to be an exciting one, but it may be missing one of the most dynamic players in the game. Iowa State Cyclones quarterback Brock Purdy is uncertain for the upcoming season due to an undisclosed injury.
Purdy has been a star for the Cyclones since his freshman season in 2018. He has thrown for 8,092 yards and 64 touchdowns in his three years with the team. He has also rushed for 1,092 yards and 13 touchdowns. He has been a key part of the team’s success, leading them to a bowl game in each of his three seasons.
Unfortunately, Purdy suffered an undisclosed injury during the 2020 season that has kept him out of action since then. He was unable to participate in spring practices and his status for the upcoming season is still up in the air.
The Cyclones have been preparing for the 2021 season without Purdy, but they are hopeful that he will be able to return. If he is unable to play, they will have to rely on backup quarterback Re-al Mitchell to lead the offense. Mitchell has shown promise in limited action, but he is no Brock Purdy.
The loss of Purdy would be a huge blow to the Cyclones’ hopes for a successful 2021 season. He is one of the most talented quarterbacks in the country and his presence on the field would be sorely missed. Without him, the Cyclones would have to rely on Mitchell and their defense to carry them through the season.
The 2021 college football season is sure to be an exciting one, but it may be missing one of its brightest stars. The status of Brock Purdy for the upcoming season is still uncertain and his absence would be a huge loss for the Cyclones. Hopefully he will be able to return to action soon and lead Iowa State to a successful 2021 season.
