SANTA CLARA – The 49ers brought in seven quarterbacks for a group workout on Tuesday in order to compile an order of preference in case the team decides to sign one of those options in the coming weeks.
The 49ers are sticking with starter C.J. Beathard and backup Nick Mullens through at least the team’s Week 4 game at the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Coach Kyle Shanahan said he would like for the 49ers to sign another quarterback, but other issues on the team are preventing that from happening after Jimmy Garoppolo’s season-ending knee injury.
