San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance will undergo surgery and miss the remainder of the season after suffering a broken injury during Sunday's 27-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks, coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters.
Lance would not be able to play the rest of the season.
In the team's Week 1 loss to the Chicago Bears, Lance was just 13-of-28 for 164 yards, one touchdown and one pick-six.
He suffered a left knee sprain during his first career start last year, a Week 5 road loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The second-year signal-caller played sporadically for the Niners while serving as the backup to Jimmy Garoppolo.
In all, the third overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft recorded 603 passing yards, 168 rushing yards and six total touchdowns across six games in his debut campaign.
The 49ers will be led by Garoppolo for the rest of the season.
