Brock will have a playoff game this Saturday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. CEFCU Stadium, home of the SJSU Spartans, is only about a 10-mile drive from the 49ers' home stadium.

Chubba, 22, heads to SJSU after spending the last two seasons at Nebraska where he was under center for six games in 2023, starting the final two games of the year. He spent his first two college seasons at Florida State.

Chubba announced on Dec. 21, 2023 that he will enter the transfer portal. He has two years left of eligibility.

Brock, still on his rookie deal that pays him $870K per year, is known to have a roommate, 49ers offensive lineman Nick Zakelj. It is unknown if the two Purdy brothers will move in together.

San Jose State football went 7-6 in 2023 and lost in the Hawaii Bowl to Coastal Carolina.
