Apparently convinced Trey Lance that the man he understudied last year can hang around without causing any emotional mischief;; Convinced Garoppolo that ...

In the world coated in schadenfreude and rotten fruit in which most of us live, Lance struggles and/or blows a tire, Garoppolo fails as his replacement, Lance returns with his confidence in tatters, the 49ers end up 6-11 and … Now in a world in which Shanahan gets everything he’s ever wanted, this arse-first strategy all works out brilliantly with either Lance or Garoppolo nudging the boys to a 14-3 record and a skate through the conference playoffs. He is Cleavon Little in Blazing Saddles and the world is the villagers of Rock Ridge. Shanahan is already the guy who convinced Deebo Samuel that running the ball several times a game actually isn’t unhealthy after all. For the same price as it would have taken merely to cut him and send him off to Uncle Billy’s farm or, if you wish, the Seattle Seahawks, they got the quarterback who had been integral to a Super Bowl combatant and contender, and they got him to be satisfied as a first backup to the guy who took his job without a fight.

The eight-year veteran completed 68.3% of his throws for 3,810 yards, 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in 15 starts last season. [Sources told ESPN](https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/34483685/sources-jimmy-garoppolo-agrees-restructured-contract-remain-san-francisco-49ers-season), [NFL Network](https://www.nfl.com/news/jimmy-garoppolo-49ers-finalizing-restructured-contract-to-keep-qb-in-san-francis) and [The Athletic](https://theathletic.com/3547547/2022/08/29/49ers-jimmy-garoppolo-restructured-contract/) on Monday that Garoppolo and the 49ers agreed to drop his base salary from $24.2 million to $6.5 million guaranteed in 2022.

That insurance policy should help guarantee that the 49ers will be one of the most competitive teams in the NFC in 2022. It's possible that Garoppolo's presence could motivate Lance to play better, especially if Jimmy G takes on a mentorship role with the young quarterback. That's part of why the 49ers were so adamant that Lance would be the starter in 2022. Below is a breakdown of the duo's head-to-head numbers from the preseason. He and the 49ers have agreed to a restructured contract that will keep him in San Francisco as the NFL's highest-paid backup. Having Garoppolo present for 2022 looks like a short-term win for the 49ers. It's also worth noting that Shanahan has a 33-14 regular-season record with Garoppolo as his starter and just 6-28 record without him. Needless to say, this shakes things up a bit for the 49ers. It has been just over a month since Shanahan made that comment and Garoppolo remains with the 49ers. Jimmy Garoppolo met with the 49ers' brain trust in late July as San Francisco began its 2022 training camp.

It's not impossible, but the more likely scenario involves Garoppolo staying with the Niners as Trey Lance's backup before signing elsewhere next offseason.

The no-trade clause doesn't make a trade impossible, it just means the deal needs to be agreeable to both player and team.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that bringing back veteran QB Jimmy Garoppolo as a backup to young starter Trey Lance was a ...

Shanahan said that Purdy beat out Sudfeld, and the Plan B was to go with Purdy as the backup. That's the how and the why, at least as far as Shanahan is concerned. "The rest of the league had a chance to get him, and I feel so fortunate that they didn't. "We have zero worries about him not having a playbook," Shanahan said. And the hand-wringing over Garoppolo not having a playbook while he continues to work back from offseason shoulder surgery? "When I told Trey that Jimmy's coming back, he said 'Awesome,' " Shanahan said. He added that Garoppolo is the team's QB2 heading into the Week 1 game at the Chicago Bears. Now, they have a quarterback returning who has started 45 games for the club and helped lead it to a Super Bowl appearance and an NFC title game in the past three years. [bringing back](https://www.nfl.com/news/jimmy-garoppolo-49ers-finalizing-restructured-contract-to-keep-qb-in-san-francis) Garoppolo on a reduced salary, the 49ers were able to avoid taking a big financial hit for nothing in return. "This was (a case of), 'Oh my God, Jimmy Garoppolo's available as a backup quarterback,'" Shanahan said. Shanahan painted a picture of the 49ers' biggest QB move this preseason as being something of a no-brainer, even if he didn't think it was possible that long ago. Don't be -- at least that was the message delivered by head coach Kyle Shanahan on Tuesday.

Having a former Super Bowl quarterback in waiting could prevent starter Trey Lance from being comfortable.

It’s probably a lot like how you imagine it: trying to do your job, while someone who has done it better than you for a very long time sits there and watches you figure it out, with every motivation in the world to heroically trot on the field and save the day if your performance gets bad enough. The 49ers are essentially holding up a third-round pick (what they would get as a compensatory selection if they keep Garoppolo for the season and allow him to hit free agency). They are essentially holding out hope that they would receive something more if multiple teams need quality starting help at the deadline and decide to bid one another up as enough collateral to risk the psychological damage done to a quarterback who has seen about as much live game action over the past three seasons as you or I (we are not NFL quarterbacks, remember). While that may be the kind of daily reminder and motivation Lance needs to clear his version of the NFL toddler phase, it could also be a developmental brick to the skull. They also have a suitable backup if Trey Lance struggles and the team is still good enough to make a deep run in the playoffs. They have to be Mark Brunell in his 40s, or Josh McCown on his 90th team, or on the complete opposite end of the spectrum, possess the kind of defeated, RC Cola energy of Andy Dalton or Mike Glennon.

Shanahan said he was not concerned about Garoppolo missing the entire offseason while recovering from shoulder surgery and waiting for his roster situation to get settled. “We thought it was [a win-win](https://twitter.com/957thegame/status/1564687753681326081) for both sides.” [available](https://twitter.com/957thegame/status/1564689514525667329) as a backup quarterback.’ .

Shanahan blew the Super Bowl not Jimmy G. Did Jimmy let T. Hill behind the safeties. Just like he blew the Patriots greatest comeback in super Bowl history.

Now, with the former starter re-entering a locker room in which Jimmy the Ghost is beloved, it will be very awkward for Lance. They don’t know what Lance will do in games that count, week in and week out.

The San Francisco 49ers reversed course Monday when they restructured Jimmy Garoppolo's contract to keep the quarterback with the team for the 2022 season ...

Mullen quickly saw the field, starting 10 of his 16 appearances in 2019 and starting all 16 games in 2020. With the question of "Who will be the best player in the NBA in five years?" McKissic are expected to take the bulk of the carries for the team as Robinson recovers. My job, as well as the players' job, is to focus on the task at hand." "We're on top of the world, but we're going to see the world here in a few weeks," Bennett told Sports Illustrated earlier this month. "There's definitely some feelings of excitement for me to go play a team I care about and was a big part of for a long time," Lanning said. For the team to retain a seventh-round wide receiver speaks to what they think of his play. While James earned one vote for the question of "Who is the best player in the NBA right now?" Based on preseason expectations and the star power of the roster, the 2021-22 season was a pretty colossal failure across the board for the Lakers. "LBJ" continues to defy father time, but in general, the NBA is seemingly becoming more and more of a young man's game. The Eagles were already a playoff team a year ago, and with those additions on defense might be the early favorites in the NFC East. The Thunder are coming off a 24-58 season and will have to proceed without Holmgren for the time being.
