Jimmy Garoppolo To Practice Wednesday
4 years agoSan Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) will practice on Wednesday, which is a good sign for his availability in Week 5 against the Dolphins. The Niners really would like to get their starting signal-caller back this weekend after they were forced to bench Nick Mullens for C.J. Beathard in the Week 4 loss to the Eagles on Sunday night. As long as Garoppolo doesn't have a setback on Thursday or Friday, he should be on track to make his return after missing the last two games. Miami has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing QBs, too, so it's a friendly matchup this weekend. Treat Jimmy G as a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues if he's back. It's good news for pass-catchers George Kittle, Deebo Samuel and rookie Brandon Aiyuk.
