Jimmy Garopp-oh no.
The 49ers quarterback had to be carted off the field Sunday after his knee appeared to buckle before a vicious hit in a game in which Kansas City was leading 38-27 in the fourth quarter.
According to The MMQB, the 49ers fear Garoppolo tore his ACL.
Garoppolo was scrambling up the left sideline and could have stepped out of bounds, but he kept going for every inch he could. His foot appeared to get caught in the field, and then he ran into the brick wall that was cornerback Steven Nelson. The former Patriots backup immediately went down, sprawled on the field, as Nelson looked down at him.
According to NBC, the 49ers medical staff was looking at the left leg of the $137.5 million quarterback, who was soon carted off the field. No further update has been given.
Garoppolo had gone 20-of-30 for 251 yards for two touchdown and no interceptions before leaving the game. C. J. Beathard replaced him.
