Saxum Posted August 29, 2022 Posted August 29, 2022 Too realistic. An agent would not want to make that deal since he would take a cut in commission. Is Jimmy his own agent? 1 Quote

But also there were some reports that he has sort of cashed it in. This might be a sign he’s ok being a career back up? I don’t know. I’m just making stuff up at this point. 4 Quote

UKBillFan Posted August 29, 2022 Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1564363001167319042 Sorry, not sure if I embedded properly. From Adam Schefter: Jimmy Garoppolo and the 49ers agreed to a restructured one-year contract that will keep the QB in San Francisco this season, per sources. The contract contains no-trade and no-tag clauses, assuring Garoppolo will remain in SF this season and have the freedom to leave in 2023. Edited August 29, 2022 by UKBillFan Tweet in bold 1 Quote
BuffaloButt Posted August 29, 2022 Posted August 29, 2022 Sounds like Jimmy doesn't like starting since he is always getting hurt. Maybe he's content with just being a back up and feels he's made enough money already! He would have been the Seahawks or Browns opening day starter if he wanted to be! 1 1 Quote
Rc2catch Posted August 29, 2022 Posted August 29, 2022 Given lances athletic ability it’s never bad to have one of the best backups in the league. But this whole situation and last season wreak of Lance is not progressing like a top drafted 1st rounder should. 1 Quote

Browns had already ruled themselves out as they're going to apparently stick with Brissett until Watson has served his suspension. As per Rapoport, sounds like Garoppolo was not that interested in going to the Seahawks. Could be a good way to start a coaching career; help Lance through his first season as starter. 1 Quote

Falcons, Jets, and maybe Miami, wk3+, Giants wk2+ as well. That’s the only explanation, that he likes the backup job. Billy Volek is the only other QB I can recall who favored being a backup over starter opportunities. Edited August 29, 2022 by Charles Romes Quote

Is Jimmy his own agent? The agent doesn’t get to decide…Lance has looked bad in preseason…Jimmy may get an opportunity to start again with the 49ers, and the new contract makes him more tradable if something opens up during the season…. 1 1 Quote
wppete Posted August 29, 2022 Posted August 29, 2022 The Italian Stallion will be starting by game 5. Good move by 49ers and Jimmy G. Trey Lance is the loser here. 1 Quote
Chicken Boo Posted August 29, 2022 Posted August 29, 2022 Smart decision. Still getting paid on a good team while staying in the system you know with the coach you know. Wins across the board. 1 Quote
