The San Francisco 49ers may be doing their best to convince other NFL teams that they are comfortable keeping quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo through next season, but no one else in the league seems to believe them.
With the NFL draft quickly approaching, the Carolina Panthers remain one of the few potential landing spots for Jimmy G. According to ESPN NFL reporter Jeremy Fowler, the Panthers have “done their homework on Garoppolo.”
The Panthers have been heavily connected to the top quarterback prospects in this year’s draft class, but reporters around the team have suggested they believe that to be a smokescreen.
