With regular starter Jimmy Garoppolo struggling with a thumb injury, the San Francisco 49ers are lifted from their training roster, according to a report by veteran Nate Sudfeld NFL insider Adam Schefter. Schefter speculates that the move came in the expectation that Garoppolo won’t play and rookie Trey Lance will get the start.

The 49ers signed Sudfeld in April and have since spent most of their time in the team’s training squad. Originally designed by then-Washington Redskins in 2016, Sudfeld was best known for his back-up work with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he played for four seasons and served as a member of the franchise’s Super Bowl LII winning team. But despite appearing in only four games during his Eagles career, his final action on the field brought him a brief moment of shame during a nationally broadcast game.

In the final of Eagles’ Week 17 against Washington, which was the end of a miserable season with four wins in sight, Philadelphia was only three points behind as Eagles head coach in a 17:14 competition Doug Pederson Starting quarterback drawn Jalen hurts in favor of Sudfeld at the beginning of the fourth quarter. It was an alarming decision in a winning game, and Sudfeld did not perform well: he completed only 5 of 12 passes for 32 yards, took two sacks, threw an interception and lost a fumble when Philadelphia lost 20:14.

San Francisco marks the third professional team the former Indiana product has spent time with. In his three seasons with the Eagles, he completed 25 passes for 188 yards and a touchdown with an interception.

The 49ers drafted Lance to be number 3 overall in the 2021 NFL draft, making him the obvious heir to the quarterback position when San Francisco decided to move from Garoppolo. He played sparingly this year with five appearances and one start. lance saw his first extended action of the season in October when he played the entire second half in the 28:21 loss of the San Francisco 49ers to the Seattle Seahawks after starter Jimmy Garoppolo was eliminated with a calf injury.

The former North Dakota State Standout completed 9 of 18 passes for 157 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions, while rushing an additional 41 yards with seven carries. After the game, head coach of the 49ers Kyle Shanahan shared his assessment of the quarterback’s performance.

“Some good, some bad,” said Shanahan. “He was thrown in without expecting to come in and I thought he ran the ball well, he hit some passes, obviously missed some passes. Got in a difficult position there when we were two goals back. Did a good job moving the chains a few times with his legs, but it looked like a typical first game. “

He got the start the next week against Arizona, completing 15 of his 29 pass attempts for 192 yards and one intercept.

SANTA CLARA, Calif .– As they enter a critical phase of two games against the NFC West Division’s top opponents, the San Francisco 49ers will welcome some key reinforcements.

When the Niners begin preparing for Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals, they will meet George Kittle, kicker Robbie Gould and running back Jeff Wilson Jr. back on the training field.

According to San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan, the Niners will open the training window on Wednesday for Kittle (calf), Gould (groin) and Wilson (knee), all of whom were injured. Once this window opens, the team has three weeks to activate the player for the 53-man roster.

While opening the practice window for Kittle, Gould, and Wilson is a step in the right direction, it doesn’t guarantee they’re ready to play against the Cardinals. Kittle and Gould should have a chance to return this week, though Wilson may take a little longer as he has been out with a ruptured meniscus since May.

“It will be his first time playing football in a long time so I don’t know if he will be ready this week, but at least we know he will be back soon, too,” Shanahan said.

The 49ers are also close to reclaiming linebacker Dre Greenlaw from a core muscle injury sustained in a Week 1 win against the Detroit Lions. Shanahan said the team hope Greenlaw’s training window will also open on Wednesday but are “not sure yet”.

Two other Niners who could return this week are Dee Ford and linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, who both missed Sunday’s win against the Chicago Bears with concussions. They were close enough to play in that game that they traveled to Chicago with the team and Shanahan is optimistic they will be evacuated in time for Wednesday practice.

In less promising injury news, Niner’s running back Elijah Mitchell will be restricted in training on Wednesday as he struggles with a rib injury. And Free Safety Jimmie Ward’s status is even more meager as he recovers from what Shanahan called a Grade 1 quadriceps exercise.

“[It will be] a week or two, “Shanahan said of Ward’s injury.

Left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) and receiver Deebo Samuel (calf) managed to beat the Bears OK, but the Niners will continue to watch them this week, Shanahan said.
