Out about one week Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Lance emerged from Sunday's preseason win against the Raiders with "a small chip in his finger" and will be out approximately one week, Chris B... Impact Lance appeared to jam a finger on his right throwing hand in the second quarter Sunday, but he was able to gut it out en route to 6-for-13 passing for 46 yards and six carries for eight yards and one touchdown. The rookie and Jimmy Garoppolo alternated series and snaps during the contest, with both QBs scoring short TD runs. This injury may have hurt Lance's chances to be named the Week 1 starter, which was trending to be Garoppolo anyway. However, Lance has two weeks to heal up in advance of the 49ers' season opener Sept. 12 at Detroit, where he'll likely be used in certain packages, assuming he's healthy and available.
