Bad looking ankle injury.
He was carted off & Jimmy G is in at QB.
Saw it on Redzone.

Pretty good coming in cold.

(20,140 posts)If Jimmy can stay healthy, it might be hard for Trey to win the starting job back. But if Jimmy does wind up injured again and Lance's ankle injury is serious, that would leave it up to third-string Brock Purdy (Iowa State alum). But he was ruled out/inactive for today's game. Not sure if he also has any health issues.

(31,775 posts)There are so many more options when the passing game is led by an experienced QB. The really bad news for Lance is that a year of very needed learning and development is now lost. Bad news for the 49ers in 2023 too.

(37,737 posts)I enjoyed watching Jimmy Garoppolo play. He rode the bench like a pro, then stepped up and delivered.
