Turns out, sitting behind Tom Brady for all those years paid off BIG for Jimmy Garoppolo -- dude just inked a $137.5 MILLION deal with the 49ers!!
The 2nd handsomest QB in the league's contract is one of the biggest deals in NFL history.
FYI, Jimmy G is only 26 years old -- kid's doing well!!!
Jimmy led the 49ers to a 5-0 record in games he started in after he was traded out of New England in the middle of the 2017 season.
Better send Bill Belichick a thank-you gift!!!
Garoppolo was selected by the Patriots in the 2nd round of the 2014 draft after a solid career at Eastern Illinois.
Unclear if he's dating anybody ... but his DMs are about to BLOW UP!
