Jimmy Garoppolo: Predicting an extension for 49ers quarterback

The San Francisco 49ers aren’t going to part ways with quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo anytime soon, regardless what some of the hot-take analysts mentioned following the team’s loss in Super Bowl LIV to the Kansas City Chiefs.

But another pressing matter is the Niners are faced with some tough decisions ahead, primarily in regards to the salary cap. According to Over the Cap, general manager John Lynch and Co. are armed with $12,108,031 for 2020, which ranks seventh fewest heading into the offseason.

Among those decisions facing San Francisco is whether or not the team should re-sign key pending free agents, such as defensive end Arik Armstead, defensive back Jimmie Ward and wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders.
