And now, even Levi’s Stadium can’t deny “BCB” fever.
Levi’s BNY Mellon Club West, a premium club located at the 50-yard line behind the 49ers sideline at field level, will serve a “BCB Burger” during the Niners’ NFC divisional game against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. It features bacon, American cheese, teriyaki mayo, battered fried onions and hoison BBQ sauce. Confusingly, there’s no egg or chicken on the burger.
The last pick in the 2022 draft, Purdy earned the nickname with an, ahem, ballsy rookie season for the Niners. His 107.3 passer rating led all quarterbacks with at least 150 dropbacks during the regular season, and he carried over that electric play in San Francisco’s playoff opener against the Seahawks, finishing with 348 total yards (332 passing, 16 rushing) and four touchdowns (three passing, one rushing). He became the lowest-drafted rookie quarterback to start and win a playoff game.
Just four rookies have ever reached a conference championship game: Mark Sanchez, Joe Flacco, Ben Roethlisberger and Shaun King. Purdy will look to join that small group when the Niners host the Dallas Cowboys Sunday at 3:30 pm.
