Jimmy Garoppolo carted off, Kyle Shanahan says 49ers fear a torn ACL


Frank Schwab,Yahoo Sports•September 23, 2018


With one plant of Jimmy Garoppolo’s left foot, the San Francisco 49ers‘ franchise suffered what appears to be the biggest blow possible.

Late in Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs, Garoppolo was running, planted to cut back and went down with a left knee injury. He came out of the game.

After the game, 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters in his postgame news conference that the team fears Garoppolo tore his ACL, according to Yahoo Sports’ Terez Paylor. That would knock him out for the rest of the season.

Garoppolo joined the 49ers in a midseason trade last year, and he led a five-game winning streak to finish the season. He signed a five-year $137 million deal in the offseason and was one of the NFL’s bright young stars.
