The Jimmy G era in San Francisco is coming to an end.
According to an unofficial depth chart obtained by NBC Sports’ Matt Maiocco, Jimmy Garoppolo is listed as the 49ers’ fourth-string quarterback. The 30-year-old, who led San Francisco to a Super Bowl LIV appearance against the Chiefs, sits behind Mr. Irrelevant 2022 Brock Purdy (third string), recently re-signed Nate Sudfeld (second string), and first-string QB Trey Lance.
The move comes as no surprise, as it was reported in July that San Francisco gave Garoppolo permission to seek a trade and that the team has “moved on” to Lance.
