49ers in Five: Jimmy Garoppolo is the starting quarterback

After months of uncertainty, Jimmy Garoppolo confirmed yesterday that he is, in fact, the starting quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers in Week 1 against the Lions.

That in and of itself isn’t surprising to a lot of 49ers fans, but what was surprising was Kyle Shanahan still choosing not to answer the question.

“I’m not going to answer that because I feel like all you guys have to do is look how I’ve talked since July 27th, I think that was my opening day of press conference. I almost wish I wasn’t being hardheaded with it, but I feel like you guys are being a little hard headed to keep asking.
