Fantasy Impact:
Garoppolo's fantasy football value remains in flux following these recent revelations about his contract with the Raiders. Addendum G addresses Garoppolo's 2022 foot injury and subsequent surgery. It acknowledges that Garoppolo wouldn't pass the team's physical and that any deterioration, aggravation, or re-injury could leave him unable to fulfill his contract. Garoppolo waives all claims related to the condition against the Raiders and the NFL. Additionally, the Raiders have removed the $11.25 million signing bonus initially offered, making his entire $22.5 million for 2023 a base salary contingent on passing a physical exam. This development, coupled with the team's ability to terminate the contract due to issues related to his foot injury, puts Garoppolo's future performance and value in fantasy football under considerable uncertainty.
