Trey Lance suffered a season-ending ankle injury, and I’m still sick to my stomach. When a 10-day clear sky forecast in the Bay Area called for an otherwise three-hour window of rainy weather only during the 49ers game this weekend, maybe it was a sign this just wasn’t the rookie QB’s year after having to play through a monsoon in Week 1. While some may blame the injury on the weather, others are furious at Kyle Shanahan, who appeared to call as many designed runs as passes for Lance… Source link

The San Francisco 49ers were forced to turn back to Jimmy Garoppolo after starting quarterback Trey Lance was carted off with an ankle injury in the first quarter of their Week 2 match with the Seattle Seahawks. The 49ers already announced Lance won’t return to the game. Lance looked to have hurt his ankle on a designed run play on second-and-8 at the Seahawks’ 21-yard line. He was immediately given an air cast and carted off of the field. It’s a huge blow to the 49ers, who were banking on… Source link

Maybe the San Francisco 49ers should have built around Jimmy Garoppolo for at least another year. Perhaps they’d have won a Super Bowl. The 49ers blew a fourth-quarter lead in the NFC championship game to the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams didn’t take the lead until 1:46 remained. One play could have turned it. During that game, the third overall pick of the draft — who cost San Francisco three first-round picks and a third-rounder in a trade — was one of two 49ers players to not play a… Source link

What to expect from Lance Lynn in 2022 originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago Lance Lynn and the White Sox showed exactly how they felt about one another in July, when Lynn inked a two-year, $38 million contract extension. Lynn was just months into his first season with the White Sox, but the right-hander told reporters, “There’s no point in me going into free agency if you know where you want to be.” Meanwhile, the White Sox had two starting pitchers named All-Stars in 2021, Lynn and… Source link
