Trey Lance wasn't active on Sunday night against the Indianapolis Colts. The San Francisco 49ers rookie quarterback is still recovering from the knee sprain he suffered on October 10.
In the third quarter of Sunday's game, with the 49ers trailing the Colts 20-12, we asked fans via Twitter who they want to see next weekend against the Chicago Bears, should the Niners fall to 2-4. They did, embarrassingly losing the game 30-18.
The vast majority of voters seem to be finished with Jimmy Garoppolo and want to see Lance get his second NFL start, assuming he is healthy.
Below are the poll results so far.
If the #49ers lose this game, who should start next weekend?
Head coach Kyle Shanahan has been consistent in saying that a healthy Garoppolo would remain his starter. However, the 49ers have now lost four consecutive games, three of which Garoppolo started.
While Shanahan is not one to give in to public pressure, with the season seemingly spiraling out of control, it will be interesting to see if the 49ers coach changes his stance regarding the quarterback situation.
