Having the two-time Super Bowl champion behind him on the depth chart will undoubtedly be an uncomfortable feeling, as the team could look towards him if Lance struggles.Jeremy Fowler@JFowlerESPNMajor swing in momentum here.

Several teams in recent days were expecting him to be released twitter.com/adamschefter/s…Teams who were reportedly interested in bringing in Garroppolo also won't be too pleased by this update, as it takes away one of the best quarterback options that was still available for trade. Although the 49ers could still trade Garoppolo, the likelihood of it happening is low.Keeping the quarterback that led them to a Super Bowl appearance just two years ago is a smart move on the 49ers' part. If Lance fails to deliver or picks up an unfortunate injury, Jimmy Garoppolo, who is well-versed with head coach Kyle Shanahan's system, can step in and steady the ship.The former New England Patriots star's reputation as a quarterback is in dire need of redemption in 2022, and now has the opportunity to do so in San Francisco.
