49ers' Jimmy Garoppolo (shoulder) has resumed throwing

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (shoulder) has resumed throwing after undergoing surgery earlier this offseason.

What It Means:

Garoppolo played through a right shoulder injury towards the end of the 2021 season and underwent surgery in March. The veteran quarterback could start drawing more interest on the trade market now that he is able to throw again, but with Baker Mayfield now in Carolina there are few teams left with a need at starting quarterback.

Garoppolo has helped propel multiple different players into fantasy relevancy with the 49ers, like Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, and Brandon Aiyuk, but even in doing so did not offer much as a fantasy option himself. Despite leading the 49ers to the NFC Championship this past season, Garoppolo averaged just 15.4 fantasy points per game in 2021.
