If there was ever any animosity between 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and his presumed replacement Trey Lance, neither player showed it during the season. Lance on Monday said their relationship developed behind the scenes as well, and not just as coworkers looking to help the team.
“He’s going to be one of my best friends for my whole entire life,” Lance told reporters about Garoppolo in a post-season press conference. “I’m just thankful for the opportunity to have him be in front of me.”
