When Did Brock Purdy Get Engaged to Jenna Brandt?

The story of Brock Purdy and his steadfast fiancé, Jenna Brandt, is truly heartwarming. Jenna is a former volleyball standout at both Iowa State and the University of Northern Iowa. She also crossed paths with the Niners QB at Iowa State University, where Purdy was making his name on the gridiron and Jenna was a setter for the volleyball team.

Jenna Brandt has been the biggest supporter of Brock Purdy, even when he was labeled “Mr. Irrelevant” as the last pick in the 2022 NFL draft. Their official uniting in engagement took place just last year, in July 2023, when Purdy kneeled down on one knee on a dock in Saint Cloud, Florida, around their one-year anniversary, as per People.

In an Instagram announcement post with a carousel of their engagement photos, Purdy expressed his excitement about being Brandt’s husband and growing together in their faith, while Brandt expressed her love for Purdy and celebrated the prospect of sharing their life together.
