The San Francisco 49ers had arguably their most impressive win of the 2026 season with their 24-14 victory over the Denver Broncos. Which players had their stock rise the most in the win?

5 Biggest Risers in San Francisco 49ers Week 4 Win 

Brock Purdy 

If the MVP talk was not starting for Purdy after the first three weeks, it is going to get louder now. The thought was that Purdy beat up on weaker competition in the early portion of the season. However, the Broncos have a respected defense, and Purdy still performed. He only had 216 yards, but added two touchdowns and no interceptions. He is up to 11 touchdowns and one interception this season. The excuses for him being an MVP favorite are fading. 

Mike Evans 

Evans came into the game questionable with a rib injury. Not only did he play, but he put up an impressive five catches for 76 yards. Evans is averaging 2.63 yards per route run this season. He averages 2.07 for his career. When he is on the field, he is as impactful as any receiver. The 49ers have to love what they are seeing through four weeks.

George Kittle

Kittle has been incredible since returning from his Achilles injury. He has 16 catches for 244 yards and four touchdowns so far this season. He is averaging 2.8 yards per route run this season after averaging 2.28 for his career. 

Not only is he making an impact in the passing game, but he is still the best blocking option on the team. He is on an incredible tear.
