Trey Lance is staying engaged with the 49ers through Zoom meetings while Jimmy Garoppolo reprises his starting role and covets offensive “freedom.”
SANTA CLARA — Two practices into his reprisal as the 49ers’ starting quarterback, Jimmy Garoppolo took to the media podium Thursday and covered a slew of topics. Here are the top-five items he discussed:“I’ve never been a backup and had a starter get hurt like that. It was a different experience but something you take in stride. Trey’s our brother. We talked to him the other day, and he seems to be in good spirits right now.
“There will be hurdles to overcome. I’ve been around Trey a couple of years. He’s a tough dude. He’ll be alright. “… In ’17 I was learning the offense. Kyle called plays and I wouldn’t know exactly how to read it, but you figured it out as you went. The more and more you learn of the offense, I start to figure out what Kyle’s thinking, and vice versa.”“I don’t know. That’s a fair question. We’ll see that as we go forward. The more freedom you have as a quarterback, you play better, you’re more confident, and good things will happen.”“I met him last year.
On weirdness after a break: “Yeah a long break. No OTAs, no camp. It was a different type of year. I’ve been some weird situations here, obviously. This one had some good and bad. The shoulder feels good, and that’s No. 1. Once I physically felt better, the rest fell into play, I guess.”
