Patriots Reportedly Have Reservations About Jimmy Garoppolo Reunion - NESN.com
The New England Patriots reportedly would welcome a reunion with quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo but also have reservations about the 49ers star.nesn.com
I don’t believe that they really feel this way at all. Just trying to get his price down if he becomes available.
I think chances are 50-50 JG is starting week 1 for the Pats.
the bigger question is who do the Niners pick up? I just have a hard time feeling they will jettison Jimmy G if they dont feel they have an adquate replacement. They are in their window right now.
but apparently Jimmys bloated contract becomes vested this year if they do not cut him. So I do have a hard time believing they are okay with being tied to Jimmy for the remainder of his contract. If he gets injured again or they underperform then Lynch/shanahan are going to be on the hotseat. they were only .500 with Jimmy this year before he got injured....and essentially he was dragged to the superbowl kicking and screaming in 2019 in their playoff run....and their division just got better.
