The Facts: GM John Lynch didn't see Garoppolo's looming shoulder surgery coming, but he also doesn't see it deterring the club's plans moving forward. While it's no secret San Francisco is looking to move on from Garoppolo and let 2021 first-round pick Trey Lance take the reins, it's fair to wonder if the team's plans to trade away Jimmy G might've been hindered by the news. Lynch doesn't think so. "We didn't know. And, I don't think Jimmy knew it. I think he made that decision in the last couple of days," Lynch told NFL Network on Wednesday. And, according to the GM, it hasn't negatively impacted chatter with potential Jimmy G suitors. "That situation's active, it's fluid," Lynch said. "You're here, a lot of teams have interest in him."

Diehards Line:NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday that Garoppolo is set for shoulder surgery that will prevent the QB from throwing for 16 weeks. "The shoulder, I never like to say minor when somebody's having surgery," Lynch explained, "but it's a capsule issue in the back of his shoulder, that you try to rehab, but if it doesn't get better with the rehab, then you go to the alternative route and that's what they've decided to do. So, it's gonna take some time, but he's gonna be fine. ..." We’ll all find out how worried suitors are -- or aren’t – soon enough.
