Breaking news: Jimmy Garoppolo will be the San Francisco 49ers starting quarterback, and more C.J. Beathard is all but assured of being the team’s backup quarterback. I know this is a shocking revelation, so take a minute to compose yourselves.
That leaves the team with two quarterbacks competing for a practice squad spot, and trying to surprise and push Beathard. The team has added a pair of undrafted free agents over the past two seasons, signing Nick Mullens last year and Jack Heneghan this year.
Mullens joined the team out of Southern Mississippi.
