Jimmy Garoppolo Fantasy

The San Francisco 49ers need quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to rebound in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Garoppolo looked very shaky in Week 1, playing his first regular season game since suffering a torn ACL last season. Garoppolo squares off against a surprisingly frisky Bengals Defense that recorded four sacks last weekend against the Seattle Seahawks. The sixth-year signal caller has historically struggled on the road, but a perfect weather forecast on Sunday appears ideal for a passing display from both teams. Until he shakes off the rust, Garoppolo slots as a middling QB2 and should be avoided by fantasy managers if possible.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo completed 18 of 27 passes for 166 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Garoppolo paid for a careless pass the Bucs returned for a touchdown but he was able to game-manage the team to victory. Until the 49ers Defense took over in the second half, Garoppolo looked very shaky and generally uncomfortable but he settled in and found Richie James Jr. for a 39-yard score in the third quarter. Jimmy Gs performance wont inspire many fantasy managers but it was his first full game returning from a torn ACL. Hell be a middling QB2 in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo will make his first start this Sunday since Week 3 of last year. Returning from a torn ACL, Garoppolo endured a streaky preseason as he shook off the cobwebs. For the Niners to go anywhere this season, hell need to play like an all-pro. The team surrounded him with weapons this offseason and hell enjoy a tasty matchup in Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs were a bottom-three pass defense in 2018 and with a total score projected around 50, Garoppolo should have every opportunity to get going. Despite settling in as a QB2 in fantasy drafts, Garoppolo has a shot to be a top-10 option in Tampa.
