Will be interesting to see where Jimmy G goes. Have to assume the 49ers trade or release him since he’s due $20M+ this coming season. I’m hoping he goes to Atlanta. Seattle would make sense too.
why would they release him?
If they can’t find a trade partner they would have to release him. Otherwise SF would be on the hook for $20M+ for a backup QB.
Just note, their still on the hook for 9M in dead money if they cut him. Personally, I'd rather keep him on the roster since you have no idea what Trey Lance brings.
Nor is it a given that Jimmy G is the back-up. Either way, when your other QB is on a rookie deal, you can afford a more expensive back-up.
