As far as player movement goes, the next 48 hours in the NFL are pretty wild
(even if most of the names involved are ones you may not be familiar with).
And so we’ll start with the most prominent name and a new development …
Here’s the reality of the Jimmy Garoppolo situation—the timing of his shoulder surgery made it awkward,
weird, and left things undone with the 49ers with less than two weeks left until the opener
So here we are with Garoppolo mostly healthy,
having spent the summer in semi-exile from his teammates,
now headed back into a season with them and a new, restructured contract.
The details on Garoppolo’s contract are relatively straightforward.
He was set to make $24.2 million in base salary with $800,000 available in per-game roster bonuses
Those numbers are now knocked down to $6.5 million and $500,000, respectively
