San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo could miss time after the team announced he was carted off the field with a knee injury during Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
A serious injury to Garoppolo could be devastating for the 49ers after the quarterback's meteoric rise over the past year.
The former Patriots backup made only two starts in three-and-a-half seasons but found new life after being traded to San Francisco last season. He immediately transformed his team when he got on the field, going 5-0 as a starter to go with a 96.
