49ers QB Jimmy Garoppolo is running and throwing, says Kyle Shanahan

By David Bonilla Feb 1, 2019 at 9:27 AM •





"He looks good," Shanahan said on the "Murph and Mac" show. "I'm not allowed to be working with him right now, but I was in the office a couple of days ago, and I was stalking him, watching him (on the practice field) outside my window, and he actually surprised me. He was running around, throwing, doing some stuff out of the pocket.



"I even had to call our trainer in there and go, 'Should he be moving that much?' And he said, 'He should be,' so it was cool to see."



Seeing Garoppolo move around that much is a good sign. Shanahan and the 49ers remain hopeful the quarterback will be ready to throw and do some non-contact work during organized team activities, which kick off in late-May. Garoppolo is expected to be completely healthy for the 2019 season and possibly cleared to be a full practice participant by the start of training camp.



Garoppolo is over four months removed from the torn ACL he suffered during a late-September matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. He underwent surgery to repair the damage in his left knee on October 3, 2018.



While the 49ers are expected to be cautious with Garoppolo's rehab, they are also eager to get the quarterback involved and prepared for the new season.

Kyle Shanahan says Jimmy Garoppolo, offense have to play better after 49ers' loss to Cardinals

By Kirk Larrabee Sep 13, 2020

There's plenty of blame to go around for the 49ers' 24-20 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, but one place the team will need to find some answers in a hurry is on offense, particularly in the passing game. On the surface, the numbers the 49ers put up through the air on Sunday don't look too bad, with starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo finishing with 259 yards, two touchdowns, zero interceptions, and a 103.0 rating on 19 of 33 passing. But on Sunday there were certainly some inconsistencies in Garoppolo's game, which showed up on third and fourth downs in particular. The 49ers converted just two of 11 third-down opportunities on Sunday, while also falling short on each of their two chances on fourth down. One of Garoppolo's touchdown passes came on a

While the Niners won the game, they walked away with several losses on the injury front. Shanahan said that the 49ers fear a high-ankle sprain for quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. That would likely force him to miss time. Shanahan didn't want to speculate on how much time that would be. Garoppolo suffered the injury in the first quarter as defensive tackle Quinnen Williams tackled him. Trainers worked on the quarterback on the sideline, taping up his foot and ankle. Garoppolo returned to the game but left for the locker room early before halftime to undergo X-rays. He completed 14 of 16 passes for 131 yards with two touchdowns, both
