Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo was scheduled to be limited in practice Tuesday as the 49ers began preparations to face the Green Bay Packers in an NFC divisional-round playoff game Saturday night.
Garoppolo sustained what Shanahan described Monday as a mild right shoulder sprain in the second quarter of the 49ers' wild-card round playoff victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
"He had two throws that were off, and I personally don't think it had to do with his shoulder," Shanahan said of the second half of the 49ers' game against the Cowboys.

Defensive end Nick Bosa remains in the NFL's return-to-play concussion protocol, but there appears to be optimism that he will be cleared before kickoff.
Cornerback Ambry Thomas showed up on the injury report with a knee injury. Shanahan said Thomas has a bone bruise but is expected to be all right.
