Garoppolo told reporters on Monday that he’s now getting teammates together on Saturdays for extra work. “We had our first one this weekend,” Garoppolo said. “It’s just something that I like to do.

Garoppolo added: "I understand people have things that they have to get to. But we had a great showing this Saturday. It was good. Just to be on the same page with those guys, talking through route concepts and how they see it versus how I see it, it just gets us on the same page.” Garoppolo realizes that it’s important not to overdo it on the weekend, given that players are working out during the week, but the fact he's willing to put in the extra effort is worth noting.
