The biggest storyline for the 49ers this offseason has been whether second-year quarterback Trey Lance is ready to be San Francisco’s starting signal caller for the 2022 season. That coincides the progression of veteran quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, the incumbent starter, following the offseason surgery on his right shoulder.
As of Wednesday afternoon, Garoppolo agents, Don Yee and Carter Chow, received permission from the franchise to seek a trade as Garoppolo was cleared to start practicing, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. It remains to be seen whether he’ll be on the roster for Week 1.
