Jimmy Garoppolo, who missed most of last season after tearing his ACL, is set to make $27 million dollars this season and it’s not looking like the Niners made the right investment so far.
Last week, Jimmy G threw an astounding five consecutive interceptions in practice.
It was a rough practice for Jimmy Garoppolo. He interceptions on five consecutive pass attempts. Jaquiski Tartt (tip by Kwon Alexander), Tarvarius Moore(twice), Richard Sherman and Ahkello Witherspoon picked him off.

“He threw it to the wrong team five plays in a row,” Niners coach Kyle Shanahan said bluntly. “I was a defensive coach today, so I was pumped. But no, the defense did great today and obviously he struggled.
“You hope to never have a day like that, but I don’t think it’s never not happened to anyone. When you do that, you hope you can practice long enough and give him a chance to play out of it and use it as an opportunity that hopefully you can do in a game. Hopefully you don’t have five in the game, but you can play yourself out of two in a row or something like that.”
Jimmy G started tonight’s preseason game against and immediately threw an interception in his second pass of the game.

Of course the Internet roasted Jimmy G and the Niners.
Jimmy G looks terrible. I mean he looks handsome as ever but as far as playing quarterback he looks really bad right now.

Me: “Can’t wait to get off work and watch Jimmy G’s return!”

It's going to be crazy when Jimmy G is Stidham's backup here next season.
