Garoppolo didn't talk to reporters after the Sunday night game, as we posted a news story this morning about him being evaluated for a concussion. He'll need to clear protocol before Week 4's game at the Chargers, which is a later Sunday game. Hoyer would be expected to get the start if Jimmy G can't go, but O'Connell looked good this past summer.

We'll likely know more later today, but Garoppolo wasn't available after the game for any comment. If Garoppolo is unable to play in Week 4, Hoyer would likely step in. But the Raiders also have an impressive rookie in O'Connell who looked good this past summer and is popular in the dynasty community.

Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) is officially out for Sunday vs. the Bills, as is DE Chandler Jones (personal). QB Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) and WR Davante Adams (foot) are off the injury report and good to go.

The Raiders had a very tight target tree in Week 1, with Jakobi Meyers surprisingly leading the way with his 10 targets and two touchdowns. We could see Renfrow far outkick his 13 snaps from Week 1, while Adams would almost assuredly demand a massive target share.

Multiple sources are optimistic that quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo will pass today’s physical and be ready for #Raiders training camp barring a surprise. Garoppolo has progressed well from off-season foot surgery. Las Vegas quarterbacks report today.

This is great news not only for Garoppolo but also for the rest of the fantasy pieces in Las Vegas, as the Raiders' depth at the position is lacking. Garoppolo's standalone value is shaky as best and he should be ignored in most fantasy draft formats, but may be viewed as a possible streamer in certain matchups.

Barring any setbacks, based on the timeline and the progress from that Jimmy Garoppolo has shown, he is expected to be ready for training camp.

Not to beat a dead horse, but Garoppolo has an extensive injury history and a brand new offense to adjust to. Garoppolo has Davante Adams and not a whole lot sitting behind him as it stands. The quarterback is currently ranked as the QB29 in 4for4's rankings for all of these reasons.

Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is not participating in the team’s OTA practices this week as he continues to recover from the left foot injury he suffered late last season, coach Josh McDaniels said Thursday. While McDaniels declined to discuss specifics, team and league sources said Garoppolo had surgery in March after signing with the Raiders. His recovery timeline from that procedure is unknown, although McDaniels acknowledged he “could be” out until at least training camp.

Per the article, "the sense is that the Raiders aren’t worried about Garoppolo being ready for the start of the regular season in September." That's all fine and well, but not only does Garoppolo have a lengthy injury history, but he's also in a brand new offense that doesn't have the deepest talent after Davante Adams. Jimmy G's fantasy value was already questionable, and this should further diminish his outlook.

Kyle Shanahan said Trey Lance’s lower body is fine, and he’s throwing the ball very well at the start of the team’s offseason program because his finger is no longer an issue, either. Still, the 49ers consider Brock Purdy to be the top quarterback on the depth chart after winning eight consecutive games after taking over for Jimmy Garoppolo last season.

Related Players: Sam Darnold

We are assuredly going to be hearing news all over the place in regard to the 49ers QB situation from now until August, so it's important not to take one piece to heart. Purdy is still apparently four months out with his own injury issues, which puts his timeline basically right up against Week 1. If that's the case, we can only assume that Lance will get another chance to start the season, though Sam Darnold's helmet looms large in the background if the team opts to go in that direction.

We'll keep you posted.

Howard, 28, has slumped the past two seasons statistically, but a move to the Raiders could be the fresh start he needs to get back on track. At the least, he can be a situational down-field threat for quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo while also lending a hand as a solid run blocker.

This infringes on what incumbent Foster Moreau does well, so we could be in for a long season for anyone looking for production from either option. Howard hasn't had more than 16 catches in a season since 2019.

The Raiders are closing in on a deal with QB Jimmy Garoppolo, sources say. After six seasons and a Super Bowl appearance with the #49ers, Jimmy G is on his way to Vegas, the site of this season’s Super Bowl, to reunite with Josh McDaniels.

Schefter: Raiders are giving former 49ers’ QB Jimmy Garoppolo a three-year, $67.5 million deal, including $34 million guaranteed, per source.

This is a good landing spot for Garoppolo, who is set to start for the Raiders in 2023. This almost certainly takes the Raiders out of the running for Aaron Rodgers, but Las Vegas hasn't seem to interested in Rodgers in the last few weeks. Davante Adams, Darren Waller and Hunter Renfrow form a good receiving corps, so Garoppolo will have some QB2/streaming appeal in 2023.
