Garoppolo, 30, was cleared to start practicing after recovering
from shoulder surgery, per the report.
The 49ers are expected to turn over the offense to second-year
quarterback Trey Lance, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2021 NFL
Draft.
Garoppolo had a procedure on his right shoulder in March and was
excused from offseason activities, including a mandatory
minicamp last month.
Garoppolo carries a $26.95 million cap hit for 2022, the final
season of a five-year, $137.5 million deal he signed with San
Francisco in February 2018.
He went 9-6 as the starter last season, completing 68.3 percent
of his passes for 3,810 yards, with 20 touchdowns and 12
interceptions.
Garoppolo has a 33-14 career record with the 49ers and New
England Patriots (2014-16). He has thrown for 11,852 yards with
71 TDs and 38 interceptions. He won two Super Bowl rings as Tom
Brady's backup in New England and led the 49ers to Super Bowl
LIV.
