Brock Purdy remains at the top of @henrycmckenna's Week 5 QB Stock Market, but where did the other 31 quarterbacks land? Via @NFLonFOX on X

What happened: Henry McKenna ranked all 32 starters in his Week 5 QB Stock Market. Purdy opened the week as the market's No. 1 quarterback.

Why it matters: San Francisco is 4-0 with Purdy among the unbeaten multi-win starters. His .550 EPA per play paces the league entering Week 5.

By the numbers: 2026 season: 4-0 as starter; .550 EPA per play leads NFL, ahead of .380 in second. 2025 season (as of 2026-09-29): 197-of-284 for 2,167 yards, 20 TDs, 10 INTs in 9 games. 2026 season: 0.0% pressure-to-sack rate leads qualifiers.

What to watch: Week 5 results reset the order before the Week 6 update. Losses by unbeaten starters would tighten the gap behind Purdy.
