49ers’ coach Kyle Shanahan isn’t likely to change his philosophy regarding having quarterbacks run the ball when necessary.
The Trey Lance vs. Jimmy Garoppolo conundrum has morphed into a running debate about the demands of the position other than passing the ball.49ers coach Kyle Shanahan has taken heat for exposing Lance too often as a runner, paying the price when their starting quarterback was lost for the season with a broken right ankle. It happened on his 16th carry in five quarters including a 19-10 season opening loss in Chicago.
Garoppolo has always been good on quarterback sneaks, whether for a first down or a touchdown. He has a knack for finding a crease and getting a yard. But at the time Sunday, the next quarterback up would have been fullback Kyle Juszczyk. The bottom line is don’t expect Shanahan to coach in fear of getting his quarterback hurt. Especially when that quarterback — Lance — was coveted specifically because he had running skills which could make him a more dynamic threat.Shanahan didn’t say it this way, but the company line was espoused by radio analyst Tim Ryan on KNBR.
Running back Ty Davis-Price gained 33 yards on 14 carries in his 49ers debut but was lost to a high ankle sprain. Nhat V. Meyer/Bay Area News GroupRookie running back Ty Davis-Price and tight end Tyler Kroft will each miss “a few weeks” after being injured against Seattle.
