Jimmy Garoppolo Fantasy

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan is still a supporter of quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo despite his dud in the Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs. "Same as it was the day before the Super Bowl," Shanahan said of his support for Garoppolo. "There's no difference. He was on his way close to a Super Bowl MVP and we all know we didn't ... make those plays at the end but we made those plays all year, our whole team, that's one of the reasons we were there." In Jimmy G's defense, 2019 was his first full season as a starter in the NFL after backing up Tom Brady in New England for three years and playing just nine games in his first two years in San Fran due to injuries. Garoppolo has potential for QB1 games, but he'll remain more of a QB2 for fantasy owners as long as the Niners continue to lean on their ground game and defense.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo completed 20 of 31 passes for 219 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in the Super Bowl loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Garoppolo played his standard role through most of the contest, facilitating running schemes and connecting with efficient completions when necessary. His touchdown pass came in the second quarter on a 15-yard strike to fullback Kyle Juszczyk. However, Jimmy G faltered down the stretch after the Niners fell behind. Garoppolo converted just two of seven attempts in his final two possessions, taking a critical sack and tossing a pick to ice the game. Having shown just flashes of brilliance this season, Garoppolo will have to prove he can shoulder a larger load heading into next years campaign.
