Jimmy Garoppolo’s Agents Given Permission to Seek a Trade by 49ers, per Report

The 49ers have given Jimmy Garoppolo’s agents, Don Yee and Carter Chow, permission to seek a trade for the quarterback, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Garoppolo underwent surgery in March and his agents told NFL Network that his client was “progressing” and “on schedule” in his rehab process Tuesday. The focus has been to throw consistently without pain to simulate the toll of a game or practice. And now it seems he’s there.

San Francisco initially fielded offers for the signal-caller earlier in the offseason but it failed to find a suitor due to concerns over his health.
