All signs have pointed to the 49ers trading Jimmy Garoppolo this offseason. If we are to believe Adam Schefter, those signs may be incorrect.
During an interview on “The Ari Meirov NFL Show” podcast, Schefter cast some doubt on the certainty of a Garoppolo trade occurring.
“I’m just telling you that Trey Lance was probably further behind than people realized,” stated Schefter. “Trey Lance is greener than people realized. Trey Lance is going to need more work than people realized. And they have a roster that can win now.”
The crux of the issue according to Schefter is the belief that Trey Lance is not yet ready to play, and another year of development would be better for the team.
