Get acquainted with Jenna Brandt, the recently wedded partner of Brock Purdy, the quarterback for the 49ers. Whether you’re an avid NFL enthusiast or just caught up in the Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce saga during Super Bowl LVIII, Brock Purdy’s name is likely familiar. He clinched the San Francisco 49ers quarterback role as the final pick in the 2022 NFL draft after Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo faced injuries. Throughout his journey, Jenna Brandt has been a constant support.
Compared to other prominent NFL couples like Kelce-Swift, Culpo-McCaffrey, Biles-Owens, and Steinfeld-Allen, Purdy and Brandt prefer a more subdued public presence. While their courtship hasn’t drawn as much attention, Brandt seems to embrace her role as a supportive WAG despite being a newer addition to the NFL couple scene.
However, being linked to an NFL star is just one aspect of Jenna Brandt’s life. Here’s a glimpse into who she is:
Originating from Sumner, Iowa, a small town of around 2,000 inhabitants, Jenna Brandt was born in 1999 and was raised by her parents, Kevin and Amy Brandt. She shares a tight bond with her siblings – two sisters named Kaylyn and Morgan, and a brother named Isaiah. Brandt attended Sumner-Fredericksburg High School, graduating in 2018.
Growing up in such a close-knit community, family has always been a priority for Jenna. Her social media, especially Instagram, showcases numerous photos with her family, including a heartfelt post in 2016 celebrating her parents’ anniversary. Her commitment to family and community shines through in her involvement with Iowa State’s volleyball team, where she emphasized the importance of family time and community engagement in a team promo video.
Not just a supportive partner, Jenna Brandt is also a skilled athlete in her own right. Volleyball has been a significant part of her life, starting from her high school days where she captained the Sumner-Fredericksburg Cougars and earned All-Tournament Team honors. Her talent led her to Iowa State University, where she excelled as the team’s setter, showcasing her leadership qualities and determination to succeed in the sport. Brandt’s athletic prowess even took her to the U.S. Olympic Training Center for opportunities with the U.S. Collegiate National Team and USA Women’s Volleyball National Team, highlighting her dedication and talent beyond her role as an NFL player’s spouse.
