Sunday brings out NFL conspiracy theorists. Latest rumor? The Raiders will release Jimmy Garoppolo before the season.
Former 49er Garoppolo failed his Raiders physical in March. Thus, Las Vegas may release Jimmy G if he fails a physical before the 2023 season.
The Raiders' quarterback room would comprise Brian Hoyer, Aidan O'Connell, and Chase Garbers without Garoppolo. It lacks star power.
Brady unretirement rumors are exaggerated. Fans believe the AFC West team will cut Garoppolo and sign Brady due to his stake in the Raiders.
Ian Hartitz said, "So Tom Brady agrees to buy a part of the Raiders, and a few days later we hear that Jimmy G failed his physical and might not be on the roster this season."
"If Jimmy G's contract is canceled, Tom Brady will be the Raiders' quarterback, right?" wrote one fan.
If Jimmy G can't play, can the Raiders use Tom Brady? I suppose. Vincent Bonsignore said, "Complicated but not impossible."
"Soooo. Is it "ironic" that Brady acquires a minority ownership in the Raiders after this? Watch that. "Cuz if Jimmy G doesn't pass the physical when the season starts, they can cut bait with him at no cost,"
