Trey Lance To Start For 49ers Against Houston Texans; Jimmy Garoppolo Injured | NFL News

NFL News Update: Trey Lance to start for the San Francisco 49ers at home against the Houston Texans. Lance went 15-29 for 195 yards, 0 touchdowns and 1 interception in his only start of 2021, a Week 5 loss at the Arizona Cardinals. The 49ers can clinch a playoff spot with a win against Houston and a New Orleans loss (at Carolina). Starter Jimmy Garappolo tore the UCL in his throwing thumb last week against the Tennessee Titans. The 49ers are hopeful Garoppolo will return in Week 18 against the LA Rams. #49ers #treylance #nfl FAIR USE DISCLAIMER: Copyright Disclaimer under Section 107 of the copyright act 1976, allowance is made for fair use for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, scholarship, and research.
