Jimmy Garoppolo: Positives & negatives from 49ers quarterback’s injury

Hopefully, San Francisco 49ers fans, you’ve had the chance to wipe away the tears and clear the shock following the news quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo won’t be a part of the team’s on-field efforts for the rest of 2018.

Garoppolo is done for the year, of course, after suffering a season-ending ACL tear late in the fourth quarter of the Niners’ 38-27 defeat at the hands of the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3.

And you know the play — Garoppolo, who was scrambling left and trying to run upfield, chose to take a step back inside rather than go out of bounds.
