SANTA CLARA -- With 67 seconds remaining in a late-November game, Jimmy Garoppolo entered for his 49ers debut for the final three plays of another loss.
Garoppolo was on the field at the end of a 24-13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks at Levi's Stadium in 2017, ending on an encouraging note with a 10-yard touchdown pass to Louis Murphy.
“It seems like a lifetime ago,” Garoppolo said. “It’s a great group year-in and year-out. They’re always one of the top teams, and it’ll be a great challenge for us. It’ll be a good atmosphere for us on Monday night.
