INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. -- General manager John Lynch slammed the door Tuesday on any speculation the 49ers could look to move on from quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo this offseason.
“We’re extremely proud of Jimmy and committed to Jimmy moving forward,” Lynch said at the NFL Scouting Combine. “He’s our guy.”
Garoppolo, 28, started more than five games for the first time in his career last season, as he started all 16 regular-season games and three games in the postseason. Garoppolo threw for 3,978 yards and 27 touchdowns in the regular season, as the 49ers won the NFC West and clinched home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs with a 13-3 record.
