BEATHARD’S HEALTH
The 49ers could be forced to go with their third-string quar-
terback this week. Garoppolo went down with a season-end-
ing knee injury in Week 3 and backup C.J. Beathard is ques-
tionable this week with an injured right wrist. The next man
up is Nick Mullens, who has never taken a snap in the NFL.
Mullens spent last season on the practice squad and was pro-
moted after Garoppolo’s injury this year. He has impressed
his teammates with strong play in the preseason and practice.
“He’s a baller,” running back Matt Breida said. “He doesn’t
let the game get too big for him. I think he’ll do a great job if
he has to play this week.”
SAFETY DANCE
The Niners go into this game thin at safety. Starting free
safety Adrian Colbert is on injured reserve with an ankle
injury and San Francisco could be without its top two strong
safeties as well. Starter Jaquiski Tartt (shoulder) and backup
Antone Exum (concussion) are out this week. Jimmie Ward
fared well last week at free safety after moving over from cor-
nerback. San Francisco is thinner at strong safety with Tyvis
Powell, who has never started a game, and rookie Marcell
Harris, who could be activated from IR to make his debut, the
main options.
