Why Garoppolo's bank account should be rooting for the Patriots

Jimmy Garoppolo is no longer his backup, but the 49ers quarterback should still be cheering for Tom Brady to win another Super Bowl.

Well, at least his wallet should.

Garoppolo earns a big payday if the Patriots win two more games. If the Patriots make it to the Super Bowl, Garoppolo can add $56,000 and another $56,000 if New England wins it all.

In addition, Jimmy G will get at least $56,000 if the Patriots make the Super Bowl and another $56,000 if they win. pic.twitter.com/ZAg3I4CcG5
