San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance was carted off the field late in the first quarter on Sunday. Lance ended up breaking his ankle and will miss the rest of the season.
Lance was 2-of-3 passing for 30 yards. He also had three rushes for 13 yards.
Jimmy Garoppolo, whom Lance replaced as the team’s starting QB this season, subbed in for Lance. The veteran quarterback finished with 154 passing yards, one touchdown pass and one rushing TD. "I thought did a real good job coming off the bench and made some real key throws," Shanahan said."I'm real proud of Jimmy. How he came in and was ready for the moment and helped us get a win."
Now Garoppolo will be asked to resume a position he is all too familiar with as the 49ers starting quarterback. The 49ers originally acquired Garoppolo in a trade with the New England Patriots in 2017. Garoppolo helped lead the 49ers to a Super Bowl LIV appearance, and he was the starting quarterback for a Niners team that advanced to the NFC Championship game last season.
