For a single delirious week, nearly everyone in 49ers World \u2014 from fans and media to actual players and staff \u2014 was giddy that Jimmy Garoppolo was back as the team’s starting quarterback. It took exactly one miserable prime-time performance to remind everyone with eyes: Oh, yeah, he’s Jimmy Garoppolo. <\/p>\n
Bomani Jones, the ESPN\/HBO personality and a longtime Garoppolo skeptic, hopped on Bay Area radio early Wednesday morning for something of a victory lap. He also had a useful corrective for why certain segments of the fan base were so excited to lose Trey Lance to a broken ankle.<\/p>\n

“We’ve all been living in this world for a while now, right?” Jones said. “There’s a reason why Baltimore keeps Black backup quarterbacks behind Lamar Jackson: It calms the locals down. This is a thing, and it’s been a thing in the league for a very, very long time. You can’t discount that when you start trying to get an understanding of what it is, and why it is that people are just immediately coming down on the dude. Normally, people are so excited about a young quarterback that they talk themselves into it.”<\/p>\n
