The quarterback position remains a hot topic when it comes to the San Francisco 49ers. As things stand, it looks like incumbent starter Jimmy Garoppolo will be under center for Week 1 of the 2021 season.
Although the Niners are 24-9 (including playoffs) with Jimmy G as the starter, his detractors point to the 23 games Garoppolo has missed over the previous three seasons.
San Francisco has won just six of those 23 matchups with either Nick Mullens or C.J Beathard at quarterback for the injured Garoppolo, who suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 2 of the 2020 campaign and never really got back to full health.
