Jimmy Garoppolo, a two-time Super Bowl champion alongside Tom Brady, and the man behind the wheels in the San Francisco 49ers 2019 Super Bowl run, has finally recovered from his injury. Garoppolo suffered a season-ending foot injury against the Dolphins in the regular season. 

Although he has finally been cleared for practice, 49ers fans won’t see Jimmy G in the NFC Championship game. The Niners QB has been ruled out of the game against the Eagles. He will continue to watch from the sidelines. However, Garoppolo will join the team if they are to make a run at the Super Bowl, conceivably as a backup.

Jimmy Garoppolo update causes bedlam among fans

The pace of Jimmy’s recovery has been quite astonishing. After suffering what seemed to be a season-ending injury, for Garoppolo to have recovered this soon has surely been remarkable. 

That being said, 49ers fans were all over the place upon hearing the news about Jimmy G. Garoppolo has been a long-time starter for the team. But seeing Purdy’s success, Jimmy’s position is definitely uncertain. 

This fan has high faith in Garoppolo and wanted him to start over Purdy.

Most fans, though, were united in their reaction. Brock Purdy remains the starter, no matter what.

Another fan brought up an eye-popping stat about Purdy and Garoppolo.

Brock Purdy has the 49ers ready to go

The Niners surely will not mind Jimmy’s presence in the locker room. However, Jimmy Garoppolo might have seen his final days as a 49ers starter. One thing is for sure. Brock Purdy has cemented himself as the starter. Purdy has been at the forefront of the unstoppable 49ers offense ever since Garoppolo went down. The Niners have held an undefeated record since and have looked like one of the most potent teams across the league. 

The Niners will gear up to face the Eagles in the highly anticipated NFC Championship game. With Purdy as their starting QB, the Niners and Eagles reignite the college rivalry between Eagles Star QB Jalen Hurts and Purdy. Sunday’s NFC Championship will be the second time the two face off. Their first encounter was in November 2019. Purdy and Hurts were the star QBs at Iowa State and Oklahoma, respectively.

We can’t wait to see them matchup once again, as they prepare for a blockbuster showdown at Philadelphia.
