The San Francisco 49ers eked out a 30-27 win Sunday against the Detroit Lions, led by a big performance from running back Matt Breida and a solid showing from quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. So, two weeks into the season, where do those two stand for fantasy players?
Let's start with Garoppolo. Frankly, it's hard to envision him being anything more than a QB2 this season, and a low-end QB2 at that. Through two weeks, he's thrown for 467 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions, a fairly mediocre start from a fantasy perspective.
One of the issues is that Garoppolo doesn't have an impressive collection of talent at receiver, especially with Marquise Goodwin battling back from a quad injury.
