In a surprising move, the New England Patriots have officially announced the release of 32-year-old quarterback . This decision marks the end of Garoppolo’s second stint with the team, where he initially rose to fame as Tom Brady’s backup before being traded to the San Francisco 49ers in 2017.
Garoppolo’s departure comes after a season filled with injuries and inconsistent performances, prompting the Patriots to reassess their quarterback situation. Despite being a fan favorite and a familiar face in New England, the organization felt it was necessary to move forward in search of a different direction.
Head coach Bill Belichick stated, “We appreciate everything Jimmy has contributed to our team over the years. His leadership and professionalism will be missed. We wish him the best in his future endeavors.”
With Garoppolo now available, other teams will undoubtedly be interested in his services, considering his previous success and experience in the league. The Patriots, meanwhile, will look to rebuild their quarterback depth as they prepare for the upcoming season.
