The San Francisco 49ers will take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3 of the preseason. The plan is to have Jimmy Garoppolo play a half. He needs it, after his subpar showing (some of which may not have been his fault) Garoppolo needs to get that rust off from being out of action for 11 months.Except for the Chiefs—and Arrowhead Stadium by extension—is where all of this began. Forget Week 3 of the 2019 preseason. Let’s go to Week 3 of the 2018 season. Jimmy Garoppolo was coming off a strange win against the Detroit Lions. One of those wins that felt like a loss. The 49ers were going up against the Chiefs, and getting a thorough thrashing through the first half. The second half rolled around, and Garoppolo remembered he was Jimmy Garoppolo and started dicing up the Chiefs. It was 38-24, Chiefs with just under six minutes to go. The 49ers had a shot at turning this game around. They held the Chiefs to a field goal in the second half and were getting points. On 3rd and goal from the Kansas City 20-yard line, Garoppolo scrambled and ran up the sidelines. And he kept running. And just as Chiefs cornerback homed in on Garoppolo, Garoppolo didn’t step out of bounds, and he tried to get more yards. Then this happened. Could Garoppolo have avoided the injury had he just went out of bounds? Who knows. What is known is everyone knew right then and there his season was over. In his press conference following the game, Kyle Shanahan said the staff speculated an ACL tear. The 49ers confirmed the injury the following day. To say that the season was given up on at that point is an understatement. Just look at the comments of the above article. In his Thursday press conference, Garoppolo was asked a couple of questions about returning to Arrowhead stadium:It’s always weird to return to the site of the injury. Personally, I can point out the bike path in Eagle, Idaho, where I broke my arm the summer of sixth grade. Garoppolo is past the actual incident, but it does take time to move on from the injury itself mentally. Hopefully, we can finally see Garoppolo for a full 16-game season Womens Matt Breida Jersey , and we can never speak of this again. SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Alfred Morris knew the right opportunity would come, even as training camps opened and he remained home in Texas.Once the San Francisco 49ers called, Morris didn’t take long to get comfortable with his new team.With a stellar performance in Saturday’s exhibition at Indianapolis, the veteran running back appears to have earned a spot on the 49ers’ 53-man roster.Coach Kyle Shanahan said Morris may not even suit up for Thursday’s exhibition finale against the Los Angeles Chargers, a strong indication that the staff already views Morris as a regular-season contributor.Patience paid off for the two-time Pro Bowler.“I wasn’t panicking,” Morris said of the wait to find a job. “It wasn’t if I would be on a team, it was when. I had teams reaching out, even in OTAs, but I didn’t think it would be a good fit so I turned it down. I knew I would get an opportunity. It was just waiting for the right opportunity.”The 29-year-old Morris carried 17 times for 84 yards in Saturday’s 23-17 loss to the Colts, displaying a physical style of running that should fit well with San Francisco’s offense. Starting running back Jerick McKinnon is known more for speed and shiftiness, and the 5-foot-10, 222-pound Morris can provide a bruising change of pace.McKinnon and second-string running back Matt Breida have missed the majority of the preseason with injuries, which provided the opening for the 49ers to sign Morris on Aug. 13.McKinnon (strained calf) and Breida (separated shoulder) are expected to be available for the Sept. 9 opener at Minnesota.Shanahan, who’s familiar with Morris when both were with the Washington Redskins, liked what he saw Saturday.“It was just good to see him do it live,” Shanahan said. “I thought we blocked very well, so we gave him an opportunity to do it. . But we had a couple 3rd-and-1’s where I thought we missed a guy (blocking) in the backfield and he got hit behind the line of scrimmage but still was able to get us a yard. Those are the ones that allow you to stay on the field and keep running plays.”There isn’t a ton of intrigue left before the 49ers cut down to their final 53-man roster. One battle is at right guard between Mike Person and Josh Garnett, but when asked about Person, Shanahan said Womens Robbie Gould Jersey , “It’s his job to lose right now.”Shanahan confirmed that backup quarterback C.J. Beathard would start Thursday against the Chargers. Jimmy Garoppolo and several other starters are expected to be held out to avoid injury.When training camp began, Morris was at home in Cross Roads, Texas, a town of less than 1,500 people. He relished the extra time with his wife, Lindsey, their 3-year-old son, Josiah, and their 1-year-old daughter, Grace. At times, Morris said, he had to calm his wife’s nerves about when he might get a call from an NFL team.“I had a peace, honestly,” he said. “At times my wife was like, ‘Well, what’s going on?’ And I’m like, ‘It’s OK, it’s OK.'”NOTES: Linebacker Reuben Foster (concussion) and running back Joe Williams (ribs) didn’t practice Wednesday, although Shanahan wouldn’t rule either out for Thursday. Foster would have to clear concussion protocol. .Tight end George Kittle (shoulder) returned to practice in a limited capacity. . The 49ers signed undrafted running back Ja’Quan Gardner to a three-year deal Tuesday and waived safety Chanceller James.
