San Francisco 49ers News

C.J. Beathard’s performance against the 1-9 New York Giants seems to have made quite an impression on 49ers general manager John Lynch.

The 49ers’ Week 12 game against the Seattle Seahawks was earmarked by many as the likely debut for new quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, but C.J. Beathard’s performance against the Giants last Sunday has largely changed that narrative.

After roughly two weeks in the 49ers clubhouse, Matt Maiocco told Murph & Mac Thursday morning that C.J. Beathard is fitting in well with his new teammates, in particular C.J. Beathard.

Marquise Goodwin has a personal, deep-seeded reason for protesting during the playing of the national anthem before 49ers games. He’s thinking of his wrongfully-incarcerated father who had his life stripped from him for a crime he didn’t commit.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan would have to reset his offense once again to get Jimmy Garoppolo up to speed. Does he really want to do that?

Marquise Goodwin delved into the tragedy of losing his infant son Sunday morning and then scoring a touchdown and inspiring his teammates to the 49ers’ first win of the season later that day.

Former 49ers running back Frank Gore won the award last season. Other previous winners are Charles Woodson in 2015 and Larry Fitzgerald in 2016.

The 49ers might wait on playing Jimmy Garoppolo after C.J. Beathard’s performance and will likely keep Reuben Foster at outside linebacker for a while.

As the 49ers won their first game of the season on Sunday, C.J. Beathart may have won himself the starting quarterback role for the time being with the best start of his career and NFL insider Ian Rapopport believes he deserves another start.

Kyle Shanahan tells the media not to listen to rumors of when Jimmy Garoppolo might play. It all depends on how quickly he digests the offense.
