Garoppolo injures calf

The 49ers opened the 2nd half of Sunday's game against the Seahawks with QB Trey Lance behind center. Jimmy Garoppolo reportedly has a calf injury and is questionable to return. Garoppolo was on the sideline, though, with an earpiece in. So it doesn't appear the Niners plan to try to get him back into the game -- barring injury to Lance, of course. We'll see where this goes.

Update: ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Garoppolo will have an MRI and told reporters that he hopes "it's just a couple of weeks or something."
