San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo had surgery earlier this month on his torn ACL, and has returned to regular interactions with the team. Garoppolo is on crutches at this stage, but took some time to chat with the media after practice on Friday. Tracy Sandler got video, which you can watch above, or click here. I’ve transcribed the interview, which you can read below.
He is still very early in the rehab process, but he said he is expected to get out of his crutches in the next couple weeks. Running back Jerick McKinnon got off crutches earlier this week, so the timetables line up given the timing of their respective ACL tears.
