The San Francisco 49ers' efforts in Week 3 versus the Kansas City Chiefs went from bad to worse in the fourth quarter, when quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo suffered an apparent knee injury on a 13-yard scramble at the 5:55 mark of the quarter.
Garoppolo was hit by Chiefs cornerback Steven Nelson, and the Niners' franchise quarterback appeared to be in quite a bit of pain right afterwards.
Garoppolo made his way to the blue injury tent and later was carted off the sidelines. News of his injury will come along in time.
No. 2 quarterback C.J. Beathard relieved Garoppolo and subsequently hit tight end George Kittle for a would-be touchdown. But the score was negated by what was arguably a ticky-tack offensive pass-interference call against tight end Kyle Juszczyk.
Stay tuned with more news about Garoppolo's injury, along with the swarm of other injuries the Niners suffered in the contest.
