The San Francisco 49ers have acquired Jimmy Garoppolo from the New England Patriots for a second round draft pick.
The 49ers owned two second round draft picks in 2018 and traded their own to the Patriots. The pick will be one of the first of the second round.
Garoppolo is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after the season.
The Patriots have traded both Garoppolo and Jacoby Brissett this season as they appear confident Tom Brady has several seasons remaining.
Brady said he hoped Garoppolo will make a good starting quarterback for the 49ers.
"He's put in all the effort," Brady said. "I've watched him for 3½ years and really enjoyed working with him. Hopefully he goes on and does a great job."
