Jimmy Garoppolo arrives for 49ers’ offseason program

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has arrived for the start of the team's offseason program, which kicks off today. Cam Inman of Bay Area News Group snapped the following photo of Garoppolo arriving at the team facility with tight end Garrett Celek.


The 49ers signed Garoppolo to a five-year deal on February 8 worth up to $137.5 million. The deal's length matches up nicely with the six-year deals that general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan received from the 49ers last year. This offseason is Garoppolo's first with the 49ers.

San Francisco acquired Garoppolo via a trade with the New England Patriots on October 30, 2017. While he entered the end of the 49ers' Week 12 game against the Seattle Seahawks following an injury to rookie quarterback C.J. Beathard, Garoppolo wasn't named the starter until the next week against the Chicago Bears. He finished the season by leading the 49ers on a five-game win streak, which included three consecutive victories against playoff teams (Titans, Jaguars, Rams) in the final three games.

In five starts and six game appearances with the 49ers in 2017, Garoppolo completed 120-of-178 pass attempts for 1,560 yards, seven touchdowns, five interceptions, a passer rating of 96.2, and even had a rushing touchdown.

One player who will not take part in team activities is linebacker Reuben Foster. While he will not take part in team meetings or organized activities, it is unknown if Foster will have access to resources at the facility as his legal situation unfolds.

"Reuben Foster will not participate in team activities as he is tending to his legal matters," said 49ers CEO Jed York, general manager John Lynch, and head coach Kyle Shanahan via a statement issued by the team on Sunday. "As previously stated, his future with the team will be determined by the information revealed during the legal process."

Jimmy Garoppolo is back in the NFC West after signing a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Rams. The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback recently explained his decision to join the division rival after a one-season stint with the Las Vegas Raiders. "Obviously good players all around," Garoppolo said, per ESPN. "That's a big part of it. Talking to [head coach] Sean [McVay] on the phone, him just running me through offense and things that he had in mind, it really became appetizing. And I know a lot of the coaches here, so a lot of familiarity in that aspect. And then having played against the Rams a lot in my career, I've seen a lot of good things

49ers Notebook: Crucial offseason for Purdy; O-line confidence; Shanahan on new kickoff rule, Dobbs signing; Hufanga eyes training camp return

By David Bonilla

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan doesn't have to field as many quarterback questions as he did a year ago after Brock Purdy underwent surgery, the arrival of Sam Darnold, and the uncertainty surrounding the future of Trey Lance. The quarterback situation is clearer now than it has been in recent years. For Purdy, this offseason holds significant importance. It marks the first time he can focus on on-field improvement during minicamps, OTAs, and training camp. While he had this opportunity as a rookie in 2022, he was buried on the depth chart, limiting his practice reps. Last year, Purdy was still recovering from surgery to repair the torn ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow. He didn't get to throw to his teammates until training camp in

Charvarius Ward willing to help 49ers land Tre'Davious White

By David Bonilla

The San Francisco 49ers likely aren't finished fortifying their defense and have reportedly expressed interest in bolstering their defensive backfield. If they require assistance making a significant move, one 49ers player is prepared to lend a helping hand. Last week, the Buffalo Bills released All-Pro cornerback Tre'Davious White, who appears to be an ideal fit for San Francisco's needs opposite Charvarius Ward. Over the weekend, Ward took to social media to reveal that he and White share the same agent and that he is willing to nudge the free-agent defensive back in the right direction. Ward described White as a "hand in glove
