49ers' Jimmy Garoppolo Wasn't Bothered by Kyle Shanahan's Comments on Future

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo wasn't too concerned with a peculiar comment by head coach Kyle Shanahan when asked about the QB's status on the team last week.

When a reporter brought up trade rumors involving Garoppolo during a predraft press conference and wondered if the QB would still be on the roster after the weekend, Shanahan said he couldn't "guarantee that anybody in the world will be alive Sunday, so I can't guarantee who will be on our roster come Sunday".

It certainly got Garoppolo's attention, but not necessarily in a bad way.

"I know Kyle pretty well, and I knew what he was trying to say when he said that," Garoppolo told CBS Sports Radio's Damon Amendolara (h/t NBC Sports Bay Area's Josh Schrock).
