Jimmy Garoppolo has been the subject of non-stop rumors this offseason. The San Francisco 49ers have been rumored to either releasing him or trading him to the New England Patriots.
Appearing on The Greg Hill Show, former Patriots tight end Jermaine Wiggins said the team had its doubts about Garoppolo during his first tenure with the squad. Their appeared to be a sense that Garoppolo couldn’t be depended on and even compared him to Mister Glass from the movie Unbreakable.
“They used to look at Jimmy G. a little sideways, like he kind of a little bit Mister Glass… where they were like, ‘Can’t really depend on him. Can’t stay on the field,’” Wiggins said.
He added: “Between the lines they looked at him like, ‘Can we really count on this dude?'”
Garoppolo started two games for the Patriots in 2016, going 2-0 before suffering a shoulder injury. He would get traded to the 49ers the following year.
Jimmy G has missed 23 games in his 3.5 years with the 49ers.
