It does seem Garnett has had a very tough go in the NFL so. The knee injury last year really set him back.
The only thing keeping him there, IMO, is John Lynch and the Stanford connection. Garnett is one of just a handful of players left over from Trent Baalke's personnel acquisitions, so he's really on thin ice.
If Shanahan is calling Garnett out, he must have seen a medical report and believe in the NFL you are expected to play through whatever nagging thing it is that Garnett has.
It's never a good idea for pro athletes under contract to sit out unless the medical staff advises them to do so. See Leonard, Kawhi.
