Deshawn Purdie - Starting ThursdayPurdie has been announced as Charlotte's starting quarterback for Thursday's game against Tulane, per Hunter Bailey of The Charlotte Observer.ImpactPurdie will make the start for the 49ers against Tulane after filling in for starting quarterback Max Brown in last week's game against Memphis. The freshman quarterback has performed well in his opportunities this season, throwing for 869 yards and five touchdowns to two interceptions in five games. With a solid performance against the Green Wave, one can assume Purdie may be able to lock down the starting job moving forward with Brown's less-than-stellar play.
