Recovering from March surgery
Garoppolo had foot surgery in March, shortly after signing with the Raiders, Tashan Reed and Vic Tafur of The Athletic report.
Analysis: Coach Josh McDaniels didn't provide a timeline or details, though he told reporters Garoppolo's absence from spring practices was expected. The Raiders apparently discovered that the QB needed surgery during a physical exam, after he'd avoided going under the knife in December when he suffered the left foot fracture. The 31-year-old never returned from the injury last season but might've been able to do so had the 49ers won one more game and reached the Super Bowl. His new team is confident…read more

Not practicing yet
Garoppolo (foot) hasn't been practicing and may be out until training camp, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Coach Josh McDaniels didn't say if Garoppolo had offseason surgery but did suggest that the quarterback's absence from OTA practices isn't any surprise to his new team, per Tashan Reed of The Athletic. While he avoided surgery on a broken left foot after suffering the injury in December, the 31-year-old never returned to action during the Niners' deep playoff run before signing a three-year, $67.5 million contract with the Raiders in March. Brian Hoyer figures to get most of the first-team reps…read more

Contract with Las Vegas official
Garoppolo (foot) officially signed with the Raiders on Friday.
Analysis: When the agreement was announced Monday, it was reported to be a three-year, $67.5 million contract with $34 million in guarantees, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. Garoppolo thus will be Las Vegas' No. 1 quarterback in the post-Derek Carr era for the Raiders. While Garoppolo currently is rehabbing from a broken left foot that he suffered Week 13 of last season, he'll be throwing to the likes of wide receivers Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers once the 2023 campaign kicks off in September.

Analysis: Per Schefter, Garoppolo's looming deal with the Raiders is a three-year, $67.5 million pact that includes $34 million guaranteed. In his new locale, Garoppolo is in line take over Las Vegas' starting QB slot, which had been vacated by the departure of Derek Carr, who is now with the Saints. In the process, Garoppolo is reunited with head coach Josh McDaniels, who worked with the signal-caller earlier in his career while the two were both with the Patriots.

Run in Bay Area likely over
Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that he doesn't expect Garoppolo (foot) to be a member of the 49ers for the 2023 season, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: It's been a whirlwind year for Garoppolo, who was shopped last offseason with the 49ers set to move on to 2021 first-round pick Trey Lance under center. However, Garoppolo's health was in limbo due to his recovery from surgery on his right throwing shoulder, and he eventually remained with the team after interested organizations settled their respective quarterback situations. When Lance suffered a season-ending right ankle injury Week 2, Garoppolo was pressed into action and held on to the…read more

Super Bowl return still possible
Garoppolo (foot) has already been ruled out for Sunday's NFC Championship Game versus the Eagles, but the quarterback left the possibility open of returning for the Super Bowl if the 49ers advance, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo's rehabilitation from a broken foot has been progressing well -- despite his unavailability for Sunday's tilt against the Eagles -- with the quarterback's only limitation being his ability to sprint at full speed. The veteran signal-caller will need the 49ers to advance past Philadelphia on Sunday in addition to his foot fully healing before Feb. 12 for him to suit up again this season. If that scenario unfolds and Garoppolo is good to go for the Super Bowl, he would likely be the…read more

Not returning Sunday
Garoppolo (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's NFC Championship Game at Philadelphia, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo had a small chance to gain clearance for this contest after suffering a fracture in his left foot Week 13. However, he underwent an X-ray on Tuesday and proceeded to sit out all three practices ahead of Sunday's contest. The 49ers thus will need to advance to the Super Bowl for Garoppolo to have a chance to be active again this season. In the meantime, seventh-round rookie Brock Purdy will continue to lead San Francisco's offense, with Josh Johnson backing him up.

Not expected to practice this week
Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that Garoppolo (foot) isn't expected to practice ahead of Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Eagles, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo underwent an X-ray on Tuesday, and while the results of the test remain unclear, the veteran quarterback looks like he'll still need some more time to heal before being cleared for game action. Though reports earlier in the week suggested Garoppolo was making great strides and would have a chance to be the backup behind Brock Purdy against the Eagles, the former appears set to remain sidelined for at least one more week with his broken left foot.

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Garoppolo will have an X-ray on his injured foot Tuesday, Eric Williams of FoxSports.com reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo broke his left foot Week 13 and appears to be in the final stages of rehab, as he resumed work on a side field during practice in advance of the divisional-round matchup against Dallas. The veteran quarterback will undergo another test Tuesday to confirm his progress, but Shanahan added that he'd be very surprised if Garoppolo was cleared for Sunday's NFC Championship Game. Meanwhile, Brock Purdy will continue to lead the 49ers offense, while Josh Johnson operates as the backup, but…read more

Analysis: Having said that, coach Kyle Shanahan told David Lombardi of The Athletic on Friday that Garoppolo was able to resume working out on the side at practice this week, while adding there's an "outside chance" the quarterback is active if the 49ers advance to the NFC Championship Game. Garoppolo has entered the late stages of his recovery from a broken left foot that he sustained Week 13 against the Dolphins, which has caused him to miss the last six games.

Could be back late in playoffs
San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday that Garoppolo (foot) remains on track to be available late in the playoffs, if the 49ers are still alive, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Based on Shanahan's comments, a return in the NFC Championship Game or the Super Bowl would seem to be a realistic outcome for Garoppolo, who has recently been cleared to resume putting some weight on the left foot he fractured Dec. 4. Because he was able to avoid surgery to address the injury, Garoppolo has a chance to play again in the postseason, though given the length of his layoff in addition to how well rookie veteran Brock Purdy has performed in his stead, the 31-year-old veteran may…read more

Cast removed
Garoppolo (foot) has had his cast removed and now will be in a walking boot for at least the next week, Fox's Jay Glazer reported on Saturday's pregame show.
Analysis: The Niners will examine Garoppolo again after he can shed the walking boot, with the hope that he can play in the playoffs. It's not a lock that he'll replace Brock Purdy even if healthy, but the team would like to have that option.

Won't be placed on IR
San Francisco general manager John Lynch said Friday that Garoppolo (foot) isn't a candidate to be placed on injured reserve, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: The 49ers have already utilized six of their eight maximum in-season activations from IR, and with Elijah Mitchell (knee) hopeful to be back for the playoffs, the team has little maneuvering room left. Lynch also said it's "highly unlikely" Garoppolo plays again this season, echoing what head coach Kyle Shanahan had to say about the matter Wednesday. Garoppolo is working his way back from a broken left foot, and since he won't require surgery to address the injury, he appears to have at least a…read more

Unlikely to return for playoffs
San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that he isn't optimistic about Garoppolo (foot) returning during the playoffs, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The 49ers are in good position to qualify for the postseason even with backup Brock Purdy taking over at quarterback, but the team doesn't seem as though it'll be counting on Garoppolo, who only has an "outside chance" to be ready to go by late January, according to Shanahan. The good news for Garoppolo is that he avoided a Lisfranc injury and ligament damage after exiting early in Sunday's win over the Dolphins, though his recovery from a broken foot is expected to take around two months…read more

Avoiding foot surgery
Garoppolo won't need surgery on his broken left foot, which has been confirmed to not be a Lisfranc injury, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. If his recovery goes well, Garoppolo may be able to return in 7-to-8 weeks.
Analysis: This is the first indication that Garoppolo isn't out for the season and instead could be a candidate to be available for the 49ers at some point in the playoffs. The divisional round of the playoffs lines up with the seven-week mark reported by Schefter, but as long as Garoppolo is in recovery mode, rookie seventh-round pick Brock Purdy will be San Francisco's starting quarterback, with Josh Johnson backing him up after the team signed him off the Broncos' practice squad.

Still undergoing tests on foot
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Garoppolo continues to undergo testing on his broken left foot, but there's a growing belief that the quarterback avoided a Lisfranc injury, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo made an early departure from Sunday's game against the Dolphins and needed a cart to get to the locker room. Afterward, he was diagnosed with a fractured foot that's expected to require season-ending surgery, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. Having said that, until the extent of the injury is known, Garoppolo's status is in some limbo.

Garoppolo sustained a broken left foot in Sunday's win over the Dolphins and will require season-ending surgery, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo exited Sunday's game on the 49ers' first possession and had to be carted to the locker room. He'll require surgery to address his broken foot and will be unavailable for the final five games of the campaign in addition to any postseason contests to follow. The 31-year-old completed 67.2 percent of his pass attempts for 2,437 yards, 16 touchdowns and four interceptions while rushing 23 times for 33 yards and two scores over 11 appearances during the regular season.

Ruled out Sunday with foot injury
Garoppolo won't return to Sunday's contest against the Dolphins due to a left foot injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: What was initially called an ankle issue for Garoppolo now has been reclassified by the 49ers. In any case, the severity of the injury isn't known, but Brock Purdy at least will direct the team's offense for the rest of Week 13. Garoppolo's status for next Sunday's matchup with the Buccaneers may become clearer in the coming days.

Picks up ankle injury
Garoppolo was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Dolphins due to an ankle injury.
Analysis: Garoppolo absorbed a big hit on a sack on the 49ers' first possession of the contest and needed a cart to go to the locker room, where he officially was diagnosed. With Trey Lance still firmly in the midst of his recovery from a fractured right fibula and ligament disruption in his right ankle, Garoppolo will hand over the offense to seventh-round rookie Brock Purdy.

Analysis: Listed as full participant to start the week, Garoppolo will make the start this Sunday against Miami in a game that should be a higher-scoring one than the 49ers' norm. The big injury question for San Francisco this week is at running back, where Elijah Mitchell (knee) is out for the next couple months and Christian McCaffrey (knee) is uncertain to play.

Analysis: Garoppolo endured one sack and six quarterback hits Sunday, one of which resulted in a roughing the passer penalty when he took a shot to his left knee early in the third quarter. He didn't miss a snap and completed 26 of 37 passes for 222 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions while rushing four times for four yards.

Dealing with sore knee after win
Garoppolo completed 26 of 37 pass attempts for 222 yards and a touchdown while adding four yards on four rushing attempts in Sunday's 13-0 win over New Orleans.
Analysis: Garoppolo stated after the game that he is dealing with a sore left knee after taking a late hit to the area in the second half of the blowout win, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. The 30-year-old was able to finish the game and shouldn't miss time, but his name could pop up on the injury report once Week 13 commences.

Four touchdowns against Arizona
Garoppolo completed 20 of 29 passes for 228 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in Monday's 38-10 win over Arizona.
Analysis: Garoppolo topped two passing touchdowns in a regular season game for the first time since Week 6 of the 2020 campaign. He found Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle each for a pair of scores, which came from seven, 39, 13 and 32 yards. Garoppolo was denied a bigger game from a yardage perspective by game script, as he attempted only eight passes in the second half and was held out for a majority of the fourth quarter.

Scores rushing TD in win
Garoppolo completed 19 of 28 pass attempts for 240 yards and rushed five times for three yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Garoppolo failed to throw for a touchdown for the first time this season, but he punched in a rushing score from one yard out on his third quarterback sneak of the game. The veteran signal-caller has been fairly consistent in 2022 -- contrary to what we've seen in previous years -- and he just got more weapons back from injury following the bye week. Garoppolo's high floor makes him a great bye week fill-in for Week 11 when the 49ers take on the Cardinals next Monday.

Efficient against Rams
Garoppolo completed 21 of 25 pass attempts for 235 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-14 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Garoppolo was nearly perfect against a Rams defense loaded with talent, moving the ball with ease and even taking the top off the secondary on a couple of well-placed deep shots. The 30-year-old had a touchdown vultured by new teammate Christian McCaffrey on a halfback pass to Brandon Aiyuk, so fantasy managers will have to live with the "hockey assist" on a would-be third score. Seemingly unwanted by both his team and fantasy managers to begin the year, Garoppolo has quietly put up strong…read more

Goes over 300 yards in loss
Garoppolo completed 25 of 37 pass attempts for 303 yards with two touchdowns and two turnovers in Sunday's 44-23 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: Garoppolo continued his career-long struggles against the Chiefs, falling short here after losing to Patrick Mahomes in Super Bowl LIV. From a fantasy perspective, the veteran quarterback has produced well while playing from behind in his team's last two blowout losses. Even with the recent increased volume, Garoppolo's limitations as a downfield passer dampens any appeal heading into a matchup against a tough Rams defense next Sunday.

Airs it out in losing effort
Garoppolo completed 29 of 41 pass attempts for 296 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 28-14 loss to Atlanta.
Analysis: One of Garoppolo's two turnovers wasn't entirely his fault, as it was essentially a failed Hail Mary at the end of the first half. The 30-year-old did miss badly on his second pick, and also airmailed an open George Kittle in the end zone in the second half. Garoppolo did post his best fantasy point total through four starts this season, so there was a silver lining from a fantasy perspective.

Tosses two TDs in win
Garoppolo completed 18 of 30 passes for 253 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 37-15 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: It's the first time this season Garoppolo has tossed multiple TDs, as he hit Tevin Coleman in the first quarter for a nine-yard score before finding Deebo Samuel in the third on a four-yard strike. Garoppolo has increased his passing yards total every week since taking over from Trey Lance (ankle), giving him plenty of momentum heading into a Week 6 meeting with the Falcons.

Plays game manager in Week 4 win
Garoppolo completed 16 of 27 passes for 239 yards and one touchdown in Monday's 24-9 win over the Rams. He added three yards on one rushing attempt.
Analysis: Garoppolo was credited with a 57-yard touchdown pass to Deebo Samuel in the second quarter, though Deebo did the vast majority of the work after catching a short pass. The 49ers got back to their identity of winning with their defense and running game while relying on Garoppolo for little more than timely third-down conversions and game management. That role doesn't usually lead to much fantasy success, and in Week 5 Garoppolo will face a Panthers defense that's held three of four quarterbacks…read more

Two costly turnovers in loss
Garoppolo completed 18 of 29 pass attempts for 211 yards, a touchdown, an interception and a lost fumble in Sunday's 11-10 loss to the Broncos.
Analysis: Garoppolo got off to a good start Sunday, leading his team to an early touchdown on the second offensive drive of the game. That's about where the positive reviews end, as the popular quarterback looked like his old, mistake-prone self for the remainder of the contest.

Leads team to win off bench
Garoppolo completed 13 of 21 passes for 154 yards and a touchdown while adding five rushing yards and another TD on four carries in Sunday's 27-7 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Taking over late in the first quarter after Trey Lance (ankle) was carted off the field with what Adam Schefter of ESPN reports is a season-ending injury, Garoppolo guided the 49ers to a relatively easy win thanks to a defense that kept the Seahawks' offense from scoring any points at all. San Francisco's decision to work things out with Garoppolo in the offseason rather than trading him is now looking prescient, and the veteran QB will have a week of first-team reps to prepare for a Sunday…read more

In the meantime, he underwent surgery to address a torn capsule in his right throwing shoulder, from which he's since fully recovered.

Could still be traded, eventually
Garoppolo is expected to stay with the 49ers as a backup after agreeing to an amended contract, but he and the team have discussed the option of waiving his no-trade clause if something develops, ESPN.com's Nick Wagoner reports.
Analysis: The no-trade clause doesn't make a trade impossible, it just means the deal needs to be agreeable to both player and team. That presumably would entail the Niners receiving compensation while Garoppolo got a starting job, which probably would only happen if a Super Bowl contender with a low-end backup QB lost its starter to injury for a prolonged period. It's not impossible, but the more likely scenario involves Garoppolo staying with the Niners as Trey Lance's backup before signing elsewhere…read more

Sticking with 49ers
Garoppolo and the 49ers have agreed to a restructured one-year deal to keep the QB with the team through the upcoming season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Per Schefter, the agreement contains no-trade and no-franchise tag clauses, ensuring that Garoppolo will stay with the 49ers this season to back up Trey Lance but have the ability to hit free agency afterward. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Garoppolo's base salary for 2022 has been lowered to $6.5 million fully guaranteed, with a chance for the veteran signal-caller to make nearly $10 million more in incentives.

Future remains unclear
Coach Kyle Shanahan said "any scenario is possible" when asked about Garoppolo's future with the 49ers on Tuesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The 49ers presumably still hope to trade Garoppolo before his contract becomes guaranteed Sept. 10. The team likely would release him if there's no trade to be had, but Shanahan won't tip his hand just yet. Garoppolo hasn't been practicing with the team or playing in preseason games.

Could land with Cleveland?
The Browns will consider acquiring Garoppolo if Deshaun Watson's six-game suspension is significantly increased upon appeal by the NFL, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: The range of potential outcomes for Watson at this point still includes a full-year ban. If that were to happen, the Browns would explore avenues to upgrade on backup QB Jacoby Brissett, with Garoppolo being the obvious option. The 49ers haven't been using Garoppolo in practice, instead moving on to Trey Lance as their starting quarterback. The team still hopes to trade Garoppolo but might ultimately end up releasing him.

Garoppolo passed his physical Tuesday, which means he has recovered from his shoulder injury, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo is healthy again after undergoing shoulder surgery March 8. The quarterback passing his physical should allow the 49ers to ramp up trade talks involving Garoppolo, but San Francisco has already made it clear that the veteran signal-caller isn't part of the team's future, as the 49ers plan to build around 2021 first-round pick Trey Lance under center.

Analysis: Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports that Shanahan doesn't plan on Garoppolo practicing with the team this summer while the 49ers figure out details of a trade or release. Candidates for the 30-year-old's services include the Texans and Seahawks.

In line to report Tuesday
Coach Kyle Shanahan told Tim Kawakami on The TK Show on Monday that he expects Garoppolo (shoulder) to report to training camp Tuesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: The entire 49ers roster is required to report to camp Tuesday, and Garoppolo will be among his current teammates, likely just for the typical physical and nothing else. Shanahan has made the transition from Garoppolo to second-year pro Trey Lance under center this offseason, which was helped by the fact Garoppolo spent most of it in recovery mode from March surgery to address his right throwing shoulder. Garoppolo resumed throwing in early July, and there's hope he'll receive medical clearance…read more

Granted permission to seek trade
The 49ers have given Garoppolo's agents permission to seek a trade now that the veteran quarterback has been cleared to start practicing, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo may need more time to build up his arm strength after offseason surgery on his right shoulder, but he's at least been deemed healthy enough to practice. With the 49ers ready to turn to Trey Lance under center, a trade makes the most sense for all parties, though Garoppolo's considerable salary is another complicating factor on top of the shoulder surgery. Matt Barrows of The Athletic recently mentioned Seattle, Cleveland and Houston as possible destinations for the 30-year-old…read more

Hopes to be cleared mid-August
Garoppolo (shoulder) is expected to be cleared to practice by mid-August, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Perhaps more important than being cleared to return to practice, Garoppolo would also be expected to pass a physical, which should re-open the trade market for his services. It has been previously reported by Matt Barrows of The Athletic that the Browns, Seahawks and Texans remain candidates to acquire the 30-year-old quarterback.

Starts throwing again
Garoppolo, who is on the mend from the shoulder surgery that he underwent in March, has reportedly resumed throwing, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: While the fact that he's throwing again is a step in the right direction for Garoppolo as training camp approaches, it's unclear if he'll be able to fully practice by the end of the month. As the 30-year-old progresses in his recovery from surgery, look for the focus to soon shift on where he'll be playing in 2022. Though Garoppolo is still on the 49ers roster, he remains a candidate to be traded, with Trey Lance seemingly poised to handle starting duties this coming season. Per Barrows, the…read more

Not throwing yet
Garoppolo (shoulder) is expected to resume throwing in the coming weeks, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The 49ers have maintained the veteran quarterback is still on pace to participate in training camp after undergoing offseason shoulder surgery in early March, but Garoppolo has yet to participate in any offseason OTAs as he continues to rehab from the injury. Second-year quarterback Trey Lance has taken all the starting reps in Garoppolo's absence and figures to be the frontrunner for the starting job, especially if the 30-year-old continues to miss time.

Excused from mandatory minicamp
The 49ers have excused Garoppolo (shoulder) from this week's mandatory minicamp, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: San Francisco's three-day mandatory minicamp will take place beginning Tuesday, but Garoppolo will be able to stay away from the team without incurring fines. The 30-year-old quarterback is recovering from right shoulder surgery and expected to resume throwing this month, but his rehab will continue away from the 49ers' facilities. By all accounts, 2021 first-round pick Trey Lance is primed for a chance at the starting role this season, and coach Kyle Shanahan said back in May that he expects…read more

Garoppolo (shoulder) wasn't spotted during the 49ers' OTAs on Tuesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

The quarterback has been adamant that he'll be ready for training camp, but health is only one of his concerns this offseason, as the 49ers appear ready to give 2021 first-round pick Trey Lance a chance to earn the starting gig.

Expected to resume throwing in June
49ers general manager John Lynch said Monday that he expects Garoppolo (shoulder) to start throwing around late June, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo underwent shoulder surgery March 8, and despite reports saying he'd be sidelined for 4-to-6 months, he's been adamant that he'll be ready for training camp. However, health is only one concern for the quarterback this offseason, as the 49ers appear ready to give 2021 first-round pick Trey Lance a chance at taking the starting spot. "We believe in competition. We believe [Lance] is ready -- he is ready to show us, his teammates and the world he is ready," Lynch said Monday.

Analysis: Garoppolo's availability for camp is no sure thing, with some reports suggesting a timeline of 4-to-6 months after he had shoulder surgery March 8. There's also the matter of which team he'll be playing for, as NFL.com's Kevin Patra recently reported that the Niners still are expected to trade Garoppolo this offseason.

Garoppolo had surgery on his right throwing shoulder Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: As GM John Lynch told Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News last Wednesday, the procedure addressed "a capsule issue" in the back of Garoppolo's shoulder, which he injured during the 49ers' wild-card win at Dallas on Jan. 16.

Shoulder capsule procedure on tap
San Francisco general manager John Lynch said Wednesday that Garoppolo is slated to undergo a procedure that will address "a capsule issue" in the back of the quarterback's shoulder," Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo damaged ligaments in the capsule's ball-and-socket joint of his throwing shoulder during the 49ers' wild-card win over the Cowboys on Jan. 16. He then played through the injury during the team's remaining two postseason games before a decision was made earlier this week for Garoppolo to go under the knife. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Garoppolo's looming post-surgery rehab is expected to keep him from throwing for about 16 weeks. In any case, Adam Schefter of ESPN …read more

Analysis: Garoppolo played the 49ers' final five games (including the playoffs) with a torn thumb ligament he suffered Dec. 23. At this stage, Garoppolo is hoping to avoid a procedure, but if he requires surgery, his recovery will be something of interest to teams that might be interested in trading for the signal-caller, who is a candidate to be moved this offseason.

Analysis: Garoppolo started 15 of San Francisco's 17 regular-season games in 2021, missing one contest in October with a calf injury and one in December with a thumb ligament injury. He also was bothered by his shoulder late in the season, yet came one drive away from reaching a second Super Bowl in the past three years.

Garoppolo (thumb/shoulder) completed 11 of 19 pass attempts for 131 yards and one interception in Saturday's 13-10 win over the Packers.
Analysis: Garoppolo entered the contest at less than 100 percent, but he was able to brave the frigid conditions at Lambeau Field to get his team to the finish line. While the polarizing quarterback can be blamed for some dangerous throws that could have easily resulted in multiple interceptions, he certainly didn't get any help from his usually sure-handed receivers on some drive-ending drops in the first half.

Survives late miscue Sunday
Garoppolo completed 16 of 25 passes for 172 yards and an interception in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Cowboys in the wild-card round.
Analysis: The Niners leaned heavily on their ground game, with Elijah Mitchell and Deebo Samuel combining for nearly as many rushing yards as Garoppolo had passing yards, and with two more TDs. That led them to a 16-7 halftime lead, but the quarterback gave the Cowboys a glimpse of hope by tossing a fourth-quarter INT that led to Dallas' final points of the night and a wild finish.

Analysis: Garoppolo seemed like a longshot to suit up after tearing a ligament in the thumb of his throwing hand just two weeks ago.

Analysis: Garoppolo split reps with rookie first-rounder Trey Lance while working as a limited practice participant all week.

Analysis: Since the 49ers played a Thursday night game Week 16, the team's session Monday isn't an official one. As a result, information on the extent of Garoppolo's participation in practice won't be known until the 49ers release their first official Week 17 report Wednesday. At the moment, Garoppolo's availability for Sunday's matchup with the Texans is looking iffy, a less-than-ideal development while the 49ers look to maintain position in the wild-card race with two weeks to play.

Mixed bag in primetime loss
Garoppolo completed 26 of 35 passes for 322 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions in the 49ers' 20-17 loss to the Titans on Thursday night. He also rushed once for three yards.
Analysis: Garoppolo played a solid first half overall, but his late first-quarter interception in the end zone would prove to be especially costly by night's end. The veteran signal-caller then committed a second critical gaffe in the third quarter when he was picked off by Amani Hooker at his own 39-yard line, with the veteran's subsequent 21-yard return helping set up a Tennessee touchdown four plays later. Garoppolo partly made up for the pair of turnovers with a 56-yard pass to Deebo Samuel with 3:42…read more

Efficient outing against Atlanta
Garoppolo completed 18 of 23 pass attempts for 235 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-13 win over Atlanta.
Analysis: Garoppolo continued his bounce-back season with another efficient outing while leading his team to victory. The 29-year-old performs well when the rushing attack is clicking and he can look downfield on designed play-action calls. We saw that proven formula in action Sunday, as the 49ers rushed 32 times for 162 yards and three touchdowns, resulting in a double-digit yards-per-attempt mark for Garoppolo for the fourth time this season (10.2 YPA today). This Thursday's opponent, the Tennessee…read more

Comes up big in OT win
Garoppolo completed 27 of 41 passes for 296 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 26-23 overtime win over the Bengals.
Analysis: He also added three yards on his only carry. Garoppolo led the Niners to a 20-6 lead through three quarters, but the Bengals stormed back to tie it up in the fourth and then kicked a field goal on the opening possession of OT. However, the veteran QB responded with some heroics of his own, leading San Francisco on a TD drive capped by a 12-yard toss to Brandon Aiyuk. Garoppolo has tossed multiple TDs in five of the last six games, compiling an 11:4 TD:INT over that stretch, and he could be…read more

Mistake-prone in Sunday's loss
Garoppolo completed 20 of 30 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: The third quarter was a nightmare for Garoppolo. Not only was he sacked for a safety, he also threw his second pick of the day on the Niners' subsequent possession and saw it returned into San Francisco territory to set up the winning TD for Seattle. The 30-year-old still tossed multiple touchdowns for the fourth time in the last five games while falling just shy of his fourth 300-yard performance of the year, but Garoppolo may need to be sharper in Week 14 against the Bengals.

Drives bus in win over Vikings
Garoppolo completed 17 of 26 passes for 230 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 34-28 win over the Vikings.
Analysis: Two rushing TDs from Deebo Samuel (groin) and one from Elijah Mitchell accounted for most of the Niners' offense, but Garoppolo chipped in with a three-yard strike to Jauan Jennings just before halftime. The 30-year-old QB continued his recent run of efficiency, posting a YPA of 8.0 or better for the fifth straight game, and he'll look to stay sharp in Week 13 against the Seahawks.

Effective on 22 pass attempts
Garoppolo completed 16 of 22 pass attempts for 176 yards and two touchdowns against Jacksonville on Sunday.
Analysis: Garoppolo and the 49ers passing attack probably could have done more damage if there had been a need, but the Jaguars never posed anything close to a threat in the 30-10 victory for San Francisco. Garoppolo should need to throw more often against what looks like a good matchup against the Vikings in Week 12, particularly with Brandon Aiyuk (seven catches for 85 yards and one touchdown on seven targets Sunday) showing some life lately.

Throws two touchdowns
Garoppolo completed 15 of 19 passes for 182 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 31-10 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Garoppolo was a perfect 8-for-8 in the first half, with an eight-yard touchdown pass to George Kittle opening the scoring. The signal-caller remained efficient after halftime, then delivered the dagger with a 40-yard touchdown to Deebo Samuel on a fourth-and-six play to start the fourth quarter. Garoppolo has now played well in back-to-back wins, heading into Week 11's matchup versus the Jaguars with solid momentum.

Tops 300 yards in loss
Garoppolo completed 28 of 40 passes for 326 yards and two touchdowns with an interception in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: For the second straight game, Garoppolo threw for over 300 yards, and for only the second time in 2021 he tossed multiple TDs, making this performance one of his best of the season from a fantasy perspective. The return of George Kittle provided immediate dividends as Garoppolo hit the tight end for a six-yard score just before halftime, the first points of the day for the 49ers. The QB could have trouble continuing his recent run of productivity in Week 10 against the Rams, however.

Scores two rushing touchdowns
Garoppolo completed 17 of 28 pass attempts for 322 yards and no passing scores or turnovers, adding four yards and two rushing touchdowns on five carries in Sunday's 33-22 win over Chicago.
Analysis: It was an unusual stat line from Garoppolo, who now has three rushing touchdowns this year despite only contributing 30 total rushing yards (1.4 yards per carry). The usually turnover-prone quarterback (seven through five games) also did a great job of protecting the ball, faring much better than his rough outing in the rain against the Colts last week.

Three turnovers in losing effort
Garoppolo (calf) completed 16 of 27 pass attempts for 181 yards, one touchdown, two interceptions and two fumbles (one lost) in Sunday's 30-18 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Garoppolo was healthy enough following the team's bye week to start for the 49ers, while rookie Trey Lance (ankle) was ruled out earlier this week. The veteran option for San Francisco struggled mightily in tough playing conditions, turning the ball over in crucial comeback opportunities, ultimately costing the team any chance at victory.

The veteran QB will suit up for the first time since Week 4, with Nate Sudefeld coming up from the practice squad to provide depth. Garoppolo returns to face the Colts, who have struggled against the pass this year with a 15:5 TD:INT and 7.4 net yards allowed per attempt (sixth worst).

Analysis: Garoppolo hasn't played since Week 4 due to a bruised right calf, but coming off of a bye it looks like he could be nearing a return to the field. Meanwhile, rookie quarterback Trey Lance (knee) was not spotted Monday, perhaps indicating that Garoppolo has the best chance to start Sunday's upcoming matchup against the Colts.

Better odds to start Week 7
Garoppolo (calf) may have a clearer path to reclaiming the starting job after the 49ers' Week 6 bye with Trey Lance having sprained his left knee during Sunday's 17-10 loss in Arizona, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Lance's injury is believed to be nothing more than a 1-2 week issue, but he'll be examined again at the end of this week. Meanwhile, Garoppolo continues to recover from a bruised calf suffered Week 5, which allowed the rookie to direct the offense in each of the 49ers' last six quarters.

Expected to start when healthy
Garoppolo (calf), who has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, is expected to remain the 49ers' starting quarterback if he's deemed fully healthy following the team's Week 6 bye, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Head coach Kyle Shanahan has been consistent about Garoppolo being viewed as the team's starter since Trey Lance was selected with the No. 3 overall pick in the spring, and the incumbent doesn't look like he'll lose his job even after sitting out Week 5 with the injury. That said, the team's investment in Lance hardly gives Garoppolo much job security, and it wouldn't be overly surprising if the team brass' stance changes if the rookie impresses in his first career NFL start Week 5.

Ruled out for Week 5
Garoppolo (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Some figured Trey Lance would take over after a Week 6 bye, but now he'll get his first NFL start right before it. The timing does give Garoppolo a decent shot to avoid any further absences, with coach Kyle Shanahan maintaining that he still wants the veteran to be his starting quarterback when healthy. Of course, that's always subject to change if Lance does big things with his opportunity this weekend against the Cardinals.

To be examined again Wednesday
Garoppolo has been diagnosed with a calf contusion, and the 49ers will have him evaluated again Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo didn't play a snap after halftime in the 49ers' Week 4 loss to the Seahawks. A subsequent MRI has revealed a calf injury, but coach Kyle Shanahan thinks that if Garoppolo improves enough by mid-week, he may be able to suit up Sunday at Arizona, per Wagoner. If he does get healthy enough to play, Garoppolo will push Trey Lance back to his backup role. On the other hand, Lance would be in line for his first NFL start if Garoppolo needs some time off.

Mixed results in crushing loss
Garoppolo completed 25 of 40 pass attempts for 257 yards, two touchdowns, an interception and a fumble lost in Sunday's 30-28 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: It was a tale of two halves for the 49ers' starting quarterback, as he was missing easy throws and holding on to the ball too long in an ugly first half. He mostly turned things around in the second half and led an unlikely comeback before Aaron Rodgers, Davante Adams and Mason Crosby crushed San Francisco's hopes for a win in the final 37 seconds of the game.

The 29-year-old did bolster his stat line with a rushing touchdown when he took a quarterback sneak into the end zone for the eventual winning score.

Garoppolo completed 17 of 25 pass attempts for 314 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-33 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Garoppolo's 2021 campaign got off to a horrid start when he fumbled away the first offensive snap of the game. The 29-year-old was unfazed by the faux pas, as he went on to complete his first nine passes of the game en route to a solid fantasy line. Most notably, Garoppolo went 2-for-2 and a touchdown on passes of 20-plus air yards, after going 1-for-11 with four interceptions on such throws over the course of the entire 2020 season.

Unfortunately for Lance, he suffered a chip fracture in a finger on his throwing hand in the team's exhibition finale, which has kept the rookie out of most drills over the past week.

The signal-caller then got the Niners into scoring position on their second series, which rookie Trey Lance paid off with a two-yard touchdown rush after subbing in.

The former was uncharacteristically inaccurate, most notably missing Deebo Samuel high on a crossing route that resulted in a pick. Garoppolo's best play actually came on a 10-yard scramble for a first down.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that the 49ers don't have an open competition at quarterback, adding that Garoppolo will work with the starters during training camp, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Shanahan made similar comments in early May, shortly after the 49ers picked QB Trey Lance third overall in the NFL Draft. In any case, the 21-year-old rookie may not be available Wednesday when the team holds its first practice of camp, as he still hasn't signed a rookie contract. Garoppolo may not have job security beyond September, but he is on track for the Week 1 start, leading an offense with TE George Kittle and WRs Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel.

While that scenario remains a possibility, it seems unlikely after the club selected North Dakota State product, Trey Lance, with its coveted pick.

The 49ers acquired the No. 3 overall pick in April's draft from the Dolphins on Friday, potentially signaling that the team will acquire a quarterback to replace Garoppolo (ankle), Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: San Francisco is dealing the No. 12 pick in April's draft, a 2022 third-round pick, and first-round selections in 2022 and 2023 in order to move up to No. 3 overall. Schefter notes that the 49ers do not have any immediate plans to trade Garoppolo, but with at least one of this year's top three quarterback prospects guaranteed to be on the board, the 29-year-old veteran's best-case-scenario may be to serve as a bridge option if he remains on the roster. If a prospect such as Zach Wilson, Justin…read more

Still wanted in San Francisco?
San Francisco general manager John Lynch said Wednesday in his appearance on "The Eye Test for Two" podcast that he has no doubt Garoppolo (ankle) will be the team's Week 1 starter in 2021.
Analysis: Lynch did stipulate "if he's injury-free" when he was asked about his commitment to Garoppolo, who missed 13 games in 2018 and 10 in 2020. There's been talk of the team pursuing Deshaun Watson, but it isn't clear the Texans will comply with their star quarterback's trade request, and even if they do, San Francisco can't match the draft-pick capital the Dolphins and Jets have to offer. Garoppolo has two years remaining on his five-year, $137.5 million contract, with a dead-cap charge of only…read more

Won't play this week
Garoppolo (ankle) won't be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's season finale against the Seahawks, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: The 49ers designated Garoppolo to return from injured reserve at the beginning of Week 16, but that mostly seemed to be about getting him back on the practice field rather than preparing him for game action. Once the team was eliminated from playoff contention, there was never any suggestion Garoppolo might return for the final two weeks. While head coach Kyle Shanahan said he expects Garoppolo to be the 49ers' starting quarterback in 2021, it won't come as any great surprise if the team…read more

Not expected to play in Week 17
Garoppolo (ankle) isn't expected to be activated from IR in advance of Sunday's season finale against the Seahawks, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Assuming Garoppolo remains sidelined this week, he'll turn his focus to recovering from the significant high right ankle sprain that derailed his 2020 season. When asked Monday whether Garoppolo will be the 49ers' QB in 2021, coach Kyle Shanahan said, "I do believe Jimmy's going to be our quarterback next year." As for Week 17, C.J. Beathard is expected to draw the start against Seattle.

Returns to practice
Garoppolo (ankle) was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo will return to practice Tuesday, opening the 21-day evaluation window for his activation from IR. With the 49ers out of the playoff hunt, they weren't expected to bring back Garoppolo this season. However, Nick Mullens (elbow) is done for the season, and practice squad quarterback Josh Johnson is in COVID-19 protocol, leaving C.J. Beathard as the only healthy option for San Francisco. Even with the uncertainty in the quarterback room, coach Kyle Shanahan said he'd be very surprised if…read more

Likely done for season
The 49ers don't plan on activating Garoppolo (ankle) from injured reserve before their Week 16 game against the Cardinals, and the quarterback appears increasingly unlikely to play again this season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo has been sidelined since Nov. 1 with a significant right high-ankle sprain, and though he avoided surgery to address the injury, the 29-year-old still has yet to resume practicing seven weeks later. Though Garoppolo could be cleared to get in some on-field reps next week, the 49ers already appear to have ruled him out from starting against the Cardinals, leaving the Jan. 3 season finale against the Seahawks as his last chance to suit up. However, with the 5-8 49ers on the brink of…read more

Won't return this week
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Garoppolo (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Cowboys and will be evaluated next week, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Shanahan indicated Garoppolo has yet to be fully cleared by the medical staff, so it's too risky to consider a return to game action. According to Matt Barrows of The Athletic, Shanahan also said it's "up in the air" whether Garoppolo retakes the field this season and noted the quarterback's high-ankle sprain was the "worst" of the high-ankle sprains suffered by San Francisco players this year. Nick Mullens started the past five games for the 49ers, but C.J. Beathard could also be in the mix…read more

Could return late in campaign
Coach Kyle Shanahan is optimistic Garoppolo (ankle) will return for the "last couple weeks" of the season, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo hasn't suited up since Week 8, when he suffered his second (and more significant) high-ankle sprain of the campaign. By Nov. 17, he had shed the walking boot on his right foot, but only this week will Garoppolo start to do individual work on a side field. Speaking of a potential return date, Shanahan noted "whether it's two games or one game or none," suggesting a decision on Garoppolo's activation from IR may depend on the 49ers' odds of making the postseason.

Aiming for late-season return
Coach Kyle Shanahan is hoping Garoppolo (ankle) returns at some point "later in the season," Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Shanahan noted Garoppolo has ditched the walking boot he's been wearing since suffering his second high-ankle sprain of the season back in Week 8. The 49ers return to action Sunday, Nov. 29 against the Rams following their Week 11 bye, which lines up with the front end of his 4-to-6-week rehab timeline. That said, the team likely will be cautious with Garoppolo's recovery, which instead would mean he'd return -- if cleared -- for one of the final five contests of the campaign.

Surgery not the plan for now
Garoppolo has met with a foot specialist and confirmed that he won't need to undergo surgery to address his high-ankle sprain, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo's meeting with Dr. Bob Anderson affirmed the advice of San Francisco's team doctors, so the signal-caller will continue to rest his ankle with the intention of testing it out for a possible return at a later date. High-ankle sprains normally carry a 4-to-6 week recovery timetable, and GM John Lynch confirmed that if Garoppolo doesn't come along on schedule, surgery could come back into play as an option. In the meantime, Nick Mullens will start for the 49ers, with C.J. Beathard…read more

Likely to avoid surgery
Garoppolo hasn't been recommended surgery from any of the doctors he's visited with since suffering a right high ankle sprain in last week's loss to the Seahawks, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo missed two games earlier this season after spraining the same ankle, and though he looks poised to avoid surgery following his latest setback, he'll be in store for a lengthier recovery period this time around. For now, Garoppolo will treat the injury with rest and rehab for the next 4-to-6 weeks before the 49ers re-evaluate him for a potential return from injured reserve.

IR move official
The 49ers officially placed Garoppolo (ankle) on injured reserve Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The transaction was merely a formality, as head coach Kyle Shanahan admitted Wednesday that Garoppolo could be done for the season after aggravating a high-ankle sprain in last week's loss to the 49ers. At the very least, Garoppolo will have to miss three games by virtue of landing on IR, so the 49ers will turn the offense over to Nick Mullens in the meantime.

Might be done for season
San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan admitted Wednesday that Garoppolo (ankle) may not play again this season, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo is considered out indefinitely after aggravating a high-ankle sprain in the 49ers' Week 8 loss to the Seahawks. Since he was moved to injured reserve Tuesday, Garoppolo will have to miss at least the 49ers' next three games, and he may not be fully recovered from the ankle issue by the time he's first eligible to play again Week 13 versus the Bills.

That said, coach Kyle Shanahan told Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area that Garoppolo suffered an entirely new high ankle sprain from the one that sidelined him back in September, meaning he's expected to be out for 4-to-6 weeks. Because surgery is being considered, there's also potential for the quarterback to miss the rest of the campaign. As long as Garoppolo is unavailable,…read more

Analysis: If Garoppolo returns on the most optimistic side of his timeline, the Week 14 matchup with Washington comes exactly six weeks after his removal from Sunday's loss to Seattle. Nick Mullens will start under center while Garoppolo recovers for a 49ers offense that could be without star tight end George Kittle (foot) for the rest of the season.

Out indefinitely with ankle injury
Garoppolo has a high-ankle sprain and is out indefinitely, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo exited in the third quarter of this past Sunday's loss to the Seahawks and didn't return. This injury has been nagging Garoppolo since Week 2, and the team has decided to shut him down until he can fully recover. There's a good chance that he's placed on IR, which would keep him out until at least Week 12. Nick Mullens is expected to be San Francisco's starting quarterback this Thursday against the Packers, while C.J. Beathard serves as the backup.

Garoppolo suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's contest at Seattle, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
Analysis: After the 49ers' third possession of the third quarter, Garoppolo was in clear pain on the sideline. Shortly thereafter, backup Nick Mullens was seen warming up, forecasting a health concern for Garoppolo, who missed Weeks 3 and 4 due to a high right-ankle sprain. If Garoppolo aggravated the issue, his status will be one to watch as the 49ers have a short week to prepare for a Thursday matchup with the Packers.

Commits two turnovers vs. Patriots
Garoppolo completed 20 of 25 pass attempts for 277 yards and two interceptions while gaining four yards on his lone carry during Sunday's 33-6 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Garoppolo averaged a healthy 11.1 yards per attempt while completing an impressive 80 percent of his passes. He committed two turnovers in the first half, including one on a heave to the end zone just before halftime, though his team took a 20-point lead into the break thanks to a dominant performance by the ground attack. It wasn't quite the return to Foxboro that Garoppolo imagined from a personal perspective, but he came away with another win nonetheless. He was coming off a stellar…read more

Additionally, coach Kyle Shanahan held Garoppolo out of the second half in his return to action Week 5 against the Dolphins, seemingly as a precautionary measure.

Finally looks healthy with 3 TDs
Garoppolo (ankle) completed 23 of 33 pass attempts for 268 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 24-16 win over the Rams.
Analysis: If there was any doubt that Garoppolo's dismal performance (and subsequent benching) against the Dolphins last week wasn't related to him coming back too quickly from a high-ankle sprain, let Sunday's bounce-back performance quash any concerns regarding his abilities under center. The 28-year-old looked like a completely different player against the Rams, as he was moving well in the pocket and was far more accurate on medium and long pass attempts that required him to plant on the balky ankle.…read more

Just a few days removed from playing his first half of football since Week 2, Garoppolo appears as if he'll be able to handle every rep this coming Sunday against the Rams.

Status for Week 5 still uncertain
Coach Kyle Shanahan said after Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Eagles that he's "not sure, totally" whether Garoppolo (ankle) will be available Week 5, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: "I know he'll have a good workout here Monday and Tuesday, and hopefully he'll be good to go for Wednesday," Shanahan said, "but I'm not sure yet." Garoppolo has yet to return to practice since suffering a sprained ankle Week 2. Nick Mullens threw two interceptions (including a pick-six) and fumbled once en route to being benched mid-game Sunday, and though C.J.

Analysis: Shanahan downplayed the severity of Garappolo's injury, a high-ankle sprain sustained near the end of the first half Week 2 against the Jets. Such injuries usually require at least some time on the sideline to get right, but it sounds like the 49ers will monitor Garoppolo throughout the week before making a final decision on his availability.

Garoppolo completed 19 of 33 pass attempts for 259 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Cardinals. He added nine yards on his only carry.
Analysis: Garoppolo got off to a quick start by connecting with Raheem Mostert for a 76-yard touchdown in the first quarter. He averaged just 5.7 yards per attempt on his other 32 throws and perhaps suffered from George Kittle (leg) being hampered by an injury, though he did manage to connect with Jerick McKinnon to take the lead in a back-and-forth fourth quarter. Overall it was a solid season debut for Garoppolo, who will look to do more of the same next Sunday against the Jets.

Still wearing light brace
Garoppolo is still wearing "a light brace," contradicting a previous report that the QB was brace-free, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis: The distinction hardly matters, as Garoppolo was excellent last season while wearing a brace. Perhaps his mundane rushing total (62 yards in 2019) could improve once the 28-year-old officially sheds the brace, and it's entirely possible the team is just being overcautious with its star QB, allowing Garoppolo to have the full extent of his mobility come the regular season. With George Kittle locked down to a long-term extension Thursday, Garoppolo should be poised for another successful season,…read more

No longer using brace
Garoppolo isn't wearing a knee brace at practice this year, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Garoppolo wore a brace last season in his first year back from an ACL tear, perhaps limiting his mobility. He's never been one to contribute rushing stats, but it's possible he navigates the pocket more easily now that he's coming up on two full years removed from the severe knee injury. His bigger concern, at least for the moment, is a receiving corps that will lack established playmakers if Deebo Samuel (foot) isn't ready for Week 1. The 49ers figure to lean on their defense and running game,…read more

Comes up short in Super Bowl
Garoppolo completed 20 of 31 pass attempts for 219 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Sunday's 31-20 Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Garoppolo's two interceptions will rightfully overshadow an otherwise-solid Super Bowl performance, particularly his first turnover: a questionably floated pass early in the second quarter which sailed into the waiting arms of Bashaud Breeland. To the 28-year-old's credit, he rebounded to lead the 49ers down the field that same quarter, capping the drive with a 15-yard touchdown to Kyle Juszczyk. Down by four points with under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, however, Garoppolo…read more

Barely used in victory
Garoppolo completed six of eight pass attempts for 77 yards and no touchdowns or interceptions in Sunday's 37-20 NFC Championship Game win over the Packers.
Analysis: Garoppolo was essentially a hand-off machine for Raheem Mostert (29 carries for 220 yards and four touchdowns) in a contest that the 49ers led big from start to finish. The 28-year-old came through on a couple of crucial third-down conversions when asked to, but coach Kyle Shanahan clearly had a run-first gameplan instilled from the get go. San Francisco may not have the luxury of running the ball as frequently as it has in its first two playoff victories in two weeks, as its upcoming opponent,…read more

Just 19 pass attempts in win
Garoppolo completed 11 of 19 pass attempts for 131 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Saturday's 27-10 NFC divisional-round victory over the Vikings.
Analysis: This game played out like one of the early season victories for the 49ers during its 10-0 start to the season. The defense was back at full strength and completely shut down the Vikings' offense, and the rushing attack did all of the heavy lifting on offense, leaving Garoppolo with little to do from a statistical standpoint. The 28-year-old may be asked to contribute more offensively in the NFC Championship Round, as either potential opposing quarterback (Russell Wilson or Aaron Rodgers) could…read more

Nearly perfect in victory
Garoppolo completed 18 of 22 pass attempts for 285 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Garoppolo fared much better against the Seahawks in the teams' second matchup this season as he had more time to stand in the pocket behind a healthier offensive line and pick apart Seattle's defense. The only blemish on his line was the lack of scores, as San Francisco's runners finished off the drives that the aerial attack started. The 28-year-old concludes his first full regular season with a 69.1 percent completion rate, 3,978 passing yards and a 27:13 TD:INT ratio while leading his team…read more

Overcomes struggles in win
Garoppolo completed 16 of 27 passes for 248 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions in the 49ers' 34-31 win over the Rams on Saturday. He also rushed four times for five yards and committed a fumble, which he recovered.
Analysis: Garoppolo managed to generate serviceable final numbers, but he struggled for a good portion of the contest and endured six sacks from a relentless Rams pass rush. The 28-year-old suffered his first multi-interception game since Week 11 as well, but he ultimately atoned for his return to his error-prone ways from earlier in the season by spearheading a nine-play, 60-yard game-winning march that included key completions to Kendrick Bourne (18 yards) and Emmanuel Sanders (46 yards), the latter…read more

Suffers second loss in three weeks
Garoppolo completed 22 of 34 pass attempts for 200 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 29-22 loss to Atlanta. He also registered six rushing yards on two carries.
Analysis: Garoppolo and the 49ers dropped a second game in three weeks, this time in an upset defeat to the Falcons. The 28-year-old quarterback has been contained to 200 or fewer passing yards in two of his past three outings, with the 49ers being held under 23 points during each of those instances. In Garoppolo's other 12 appearances thus far in 2019, San Francisco has been held under 23 points on just two occasions, and he is averaging 240 passing yards per game. Garoppolo is liable to piece together…read more

Throws four scores in win
Garoppolo completed 26 of 35 pass attempts for 349 yards, four touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 48-46 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Garoppolo was able to keep up with the great Drew Brees (349 yards and five touchdowns) blow-for-blow in an exciting shootout between NFC powerhouses. The 28-year-old continues to silence the critics who questioned whether the gunslinger can carry the team offensively when the 49ers' elite defense and rushing attack falters. That exact scenario presented itself Sunday, and Garoppolo was calm and collected despite constantly having to play from behind against a future Hall of Famer. Jimmy G has…read more

Quiet in loss to Ravens
Garoppolo completed 15 of 21 passes for 165 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Ravens. He also rushed three times for five yards and lost a fumble.
Analysis: Garoppolo went for it all on fourth-and-2 on San Francisco's opening drive and was rewarded with a 33-yard touchdown to Deebo Samuel. Unfortunately for Garoppolo, things only went downhill from there, as the 49ers finished with more yards rushing than passing. Garoppolo couldn't replicate his early fourth-down success in a critical fourth-quarter situation, as his fourth-and-1 pass to George Kittle from Baltimore's 35-yard line with 6:35 remaining fell incomplete. The Ravens milked the rest of…read more

Solid effort in blowout win
Garoppolo completed 14 of 20 pass attempts for 253 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 37-8 win over Green Bay.
Analysis: The 49ers' rushing attack was bottled up for the fourth-straight week, but Garoppolo was there to shoulder the load with another efficient day at the office. The polarizing quarterback is averaging 310.5 yards and 2.8 touchdowns across those four contests where opposing defenses attempted to take the running game out of the equation, and those are numbers that may silence the gunslinger's nationwide critics that arose during San Francisco's undefeated first half of the season. We could see more…read more

Huge performance in comeback win
Garoppolo completed 34 of 45 passes for a career-high 424 yards and four touchdowns with two interceptions in Sunday's 36-26 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: The Niners shockingly found themselves in a 16-0 hole midway through the second quarter, forcing Kyle Shanahan to ditch his running attack and put the ball in Garoppolo's hands. The quarterback made the comeback more difficult with his two picks, one a terrible toss in the red zone, but he still put together a phenomenal performance, especially considering George Kittle (knee) was inactive and Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) was clearly less than 100 percent. Garoppolo's carelessness with the ball…read more

Commits three turnovers
Garoppolo completed 24 of 46 passes for 248 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Monday night's 27-24 overtime loss to the Seahawks. He also was sacked five times and lost two fumbles.
Analysis: Garoppolo led the Niners to points on both of their first two drives, capping the second with a 10-yard touchdown toss to Kendrick Bourne, but his performance wasn't very pretty afterward. Following a string of punts, he was sacked and stripped for a Seahawks touchdown prior to halftime, then was picked and lost another fumble on consecutive drives during the second half. Although Garoppolo's interception actually bounced off the hands of his intended target first, marking just one of multiple…read more
