The Facts: Garoppolo had successful shoulder surgery on Tuesday, NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported. The plan is for Garoppolo to be throwing well ahead of training camp, per Garafolo.
Diehards Line:
The main question now is where Garoppolo will be throwing. The quarterback is expected to be traded at some point this offseason, though his shoulder operation complicates matters when it comes to potential compensation and fit. Amid Aaron Rodgers staying in Green Bay and Seattle trading Russell Wilson to Denver, at least a handful of clubs remain in the discussion for potential moves made under center. Garoppolo is near the top of the list of targets for teams in search of a quarterback, with clubs like Pittsburgh and Washington appearing to be logical fits.
