Jimmy Garoppolo's message in his Instagram account made big waves in the headlines this morning. The controversial post made every New England Patriots fans and even American football followers wake up earlier than usual. Initial reports are saying that Garoppolo is said to be made a strange post indicating that he is already done with the Pats.
Jimmy Garoppolo was drafted by the New England Patriots in the second-round of the 2014 NFL Draft as their 62nd pick. Luckily, on his rookie season, the Patriots was able to take home the championship by winning the Super Bowl XLIX title over the Seattle Seahawks. Though he is a non-factor during that time, the Pats saw some potential on him and waited for him to develop.
Jimmy Garoppolo time came in when starting quarterback Tom Brady was suspended by the league for the first four games of 2016 NFL season for Deflategate. Garoppolo was assigned to start as a replacement for Brady and help the team to win the first two game. But unfortunately, he got injured during that second game and was sidelined until Brady came back to retain the starting quarterback from him. Since then, he's been the subject of numerous trade rumors until the end of the season.
And now, a recent post on his Instagram account has shocked the whole league today. According to NFL.com, the controversial post looks to be a picture of Jimmy Garoppolo holding the Vince Lombardi Trophy with a caption, "So grateful for my time in New England. Peace out Boston," which seems to be indicating that his time with the team is over.
However, recent development is saying that Jimmy Garoppolo's friend believed that his Instagram account was 'hack". Up until now, Garoppolo has not made any statement but one thing is for sure he still with the New England Patriots and was not traded or released.
New York Post further added that the post causes a frenzy on social media that drove many reactions either from New England Patriots fans or football enthusiasts. The possibility that Jimmy Garoppolo might leave came after the Cleveland Browns have actively pursued him and said to be committed to getting his services.
However, the transfer of Jimmy Garoppolo to Cleveland Browns looks to be slim now that the Browns acquired QB Brock Osweiler from the Houston Texans leaving them with nothing significant assets to offer unless they give up no. 1 pick in the coming. Latest news is now saying that the controversial post was already deleted to Garoppolo Instagram account.
