Head coach Kyle Shanahan was very clear about this on Tuesday during a press conference.

"It's Trey's team," he said. It's not against Jimmy [Garoppolo]. We made this decision a year ago and we are staying the course. We are not going to procrastinate any longer.”

Lance was drafted with the third overall pick in the 2021 NFL Amateur Auction. In his first campaign, he was mainly Garoppolo's second-in-command. In six games, including two as a starter, the North Dakota State product completed 57.7% of the passes he attempted for 603 yards and five touchdowns. He also amassed 168 yards and a major with his legs.

As for “Jimmy G,” Shanahan indicated that he will no longer be training with the team. He also confirmed that his organization had allowed the athlete's representatives to negotiate with other NFL teams to facilitate a transaction.

The 30-year-old veteran has a contract valid for one more season and must get his hands on $26.95 million in 2022.

"It's a business decision, so there's no discomfort," the head coach said of the situation surrounding Garoppolo.
