Article: Kyle Shanahan doesn’t see “any scenario” where Jimmy Garoppolo returns

[WarPanthers89]

Thoughts on him being a starter for us if we didn’t draft a QB? No trading draft picks, solid starter, and could use all of our draft picks to really build the team with picks in round one, two in round two, round three, two in round four and round 5. CMC was a huge Jimmy G Stan as well and really praised his work and leadership skills. For the record I want to draft a QB more than anything, but he would not be a bad option being that the cap is going up and we would not have to trade draft capital. 

ARTICLE:

The 49ers don’t know who their starting quarterback will be in 2023, but they know who it won’t be. Coach Kyle Shanahan ruled out Jimmy Garoppolo‘s return.

“No, I don’t see any scenario of that,” Shanahan said, via video from the team.

Garoppolo is scheduled for free agency in March. 

The 49ers were close to trading Garoppolo last offseason before the quarterback’s shoulder surgery brought talks to a grinding halt. Garoppolo ended up starting 10 games after Trey Lance was injured but saw his own season ended with a fractured foot in Week 13.

Rookie Brock Purdy finished up the year but tore the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his throwing elbow Sunday in the NFC Championship game. If Purdy does not undergo a full reconstruction (Tommy John surgery), then he is expected back in six months. 

“He’s continuing to go through that process [of second opinions],” 49ers General Manager John Lynch said. “I think the positive bit of news is that it seems to be consistent that the right approach is that one that’s about that six-month one. Now, everybody will also say you never know until you get in there. Every surgeon will tell you that on every surgery. . . . They’re continuing to work through that process, but we seem encouraged by the prognosis.”

If the 49ers have Purdy back in six months, along with a healthy Lance, they will not seek a veteran starter. 

“No, we’re content enough,” Shanahan said. “I know we have two starters on our team right now that I believe we can win with. So when you have that situation, you’re not that eager to go looking around.”

Panthers are done with retreads

 

Its clear we are developing our own home grown franchise QB

[Ghostface Chilla]

If they let Sam and PJ walk, I could see a scenario where we have Jimmy G as the FA QB, Corral, and draft a rookie QB.

I know we desperately want to..as do most us fans but we have a ton of teams ahead of us needing a QB and it may not play out that way. I don’t think I would be upset if we used our 6 picks in the first 4 rounds to get WR, TE, LB, DE, DT, and or C/G help (for Corbett injury) to go along with Jimmy. I think we easily won the division with that combo of the rookie QB does not pan out

[Camp Fodder]

Yes no matter what we have to sign a vet. Cant have 2 rookie QBs and Eason

[LinvilleGorge]

Well, no poo. They had a 7th round rookie play well and they still have a guy they mortgaged the future of their franchise to draft. It's not like they're gonna bring Jimmy back as a 3rd stringer.

As for us bringing in Jimmy G? Please god no.

[Jackie Lee]

Battle between Jimmy G and Carr, whoever will play for less money. I'd rather Brissett for $5M at this point over one of these guys wanting 15+. Brissett already knows the system and isn't a diva, won't be drama if he's benched week 3 for the rookie

It's kind of hilarious people still suggesting the average vet QB route.

 

As if the last 3 years haven't taught you anything.

I agree but we still need a veteran here with rookie and Corral

A vet QB will most likely be signed. Probably not going to start the season with a rookie QB. Hopefully our beloved rookie will be ready to go by late in the year, if not sooner.

Retread is only one letter away from retreat. Could mean something,  but probably not.

Whatever...NO Retreat! NO Retread!
