While the injury news for the 49ers wasn’t exactly good coming out of their Week 12 win over the Saints, they did manage to avoid catastrophe when quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo took a hit to the side of his left knee.
Garoppolo was clearly in pain and slow to get up after the hit, and expressed his displeasure with Saints defensive lineman Malcolm Roach after the game. However, he claimed he was okay and head coach Kyle Shanahan on Monday indicated there weren’t any injury issues for Garoppolo following the hit to the knee he injured in 2018.
