49ers sign veteran quarterback after Jimmy Garoppolo breaks his foot
49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo suffered a broken foot that requires surgery after a huge win against the Dolphins.
Brock Purdy will be taking over now with Jimmy G undergoing foot surgery. Purdy, who was the Mr. Irrelevant in the 2022 draft, took over and played well. He went 25/37 for 210 yards, 2 touchdowns and 1 interception.
The Niners improved to 8-4 with the win. After the game, the 49ers moved quickly to add a veteran to their roster.
You have to love it, this is not Josh Johnson’s first rodeo with the 49ers. Josh Johnson was with the 49ers in 2014, again in 2020-2021, and is from Oakland. Now he’s back again.
