Raiders' Jimmy Garoppolo recovering from foot surgery
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo underwent foot surgery in March after signing with the team.
The Raiders didn't provide a recovery timeline, but they expect Garoppolo to be ready for the start of the regular season. They also didn't explain why Garoppolo underwent surgery in March for an injury he suffered in early December of last year. The 31-year-old quarterback has missed 31 games over the past four seasons, so this will be something to monitor throughout the summer. Brian Hoyer and rookie quarterback Aidan O'Connell are behind Garoppolo on the Raiders' depth chart.
Garoppolo averaged 15.3 FanDuel points in 11 games for the San Francisco 49ers last season. He completed 207-of-308 attempts (67.2%) for 2,437 yards with 16 touchdowns and 4 interceptions. His average depth of target was a measly 7.1 yards per attempt and he had a 5.5% sack rate.
