Jimmy Garoppolo

Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) did not participate in practice Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Garoppolo is not expected to practice this week, per head coach Kyle Shanahan. With Garoppolo apparently needing additional time to heal up from his foot injury, Josh Johnson is expected to continue to serve as the backup to Brock Purdy.

The San Francisco 49ers will not place Jimmy Garoppolo on injured reserve. The team is hoping that they would be able to bring him back without using a return-form-IR designation.

Fantasy Impact

Garoppolo's best-case timetable is 7-8 weeks, which would allow him to return for a late playoff run. For fantasy managers, Garoppolo is safe to drop since he will be out for the rest of the fantasy season. Brock Purdy should be the starter moving forward with Josh Johnson serving as the backup.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, QB Jimmy Garoppolo does not need to undergo foot surgery, dodging a Lisfranc injury. With a best-case rehab process, Garoppolo could return in 7-8 weeks for a late playoff run.

Fantasy Impact

Garoppolo managed to avoid a 100% season-ending injury, though he may not play again depending on how his rehab or the 49ers' regular or postseason go. Regardless, for fantasy purposes, his season is over. QB Brock Purdy seems to be the starter going forward, though they also signed QB Josh Johnson. Neither should likely be starting QBs in fantasy going forward.

Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) is expected to miss the remainder of this season after suffering a broken foot in Sunday's win over the Miami Dolphins.

Fantasy Impact

Garoppolo had to leave Sunday's game early with a broken foot, and it's expected to be a season-ending injury, according to HC Kyle Shanahan. Brock Purdy, a seventh-round pick in this year's draft, took over for the veteran on Sunday and is the next quarterback up for San Francisco for the time being. This hurts the 49ers' offense as a whole, and players like Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, and George Kittle may see a decrease in fantasy production as a result.

Jimmy Garoppolo has been downgraded to out against the Dolphins because of an ankle injury.

Fantasy Impact

This was hardly a surprise even though Garoppolo was initially designated as questionable. He'll likely undergo further testing but, even if he avoided a fracture, he is probably dealing with an ankle sprain. The 49ers should further update his status after the game.
