Season-ending injury for 49ers’ GAroppolo

-

San Francisco 49ers quarterbac­k Jimmy Garoppolo will need season-ending surgery on his injured left knee. The 49ers said Monday an MRI confirmed the team’s fears that Garoppolo tore his ACL while making a cut late in a loss to the Chiefs in Kansas City. The injury deals a serious blow to the 49ers (1-2), who had planned their rebuild around Garoppolo. C.J. Beathard takes over as starter. The Niners struggled with Beathard last year before the midseason addition of Garoppolo, who guided San Francisco to wins in its final five games.
