The 49ers must comply with the NFL’s $208.2 million salary cap by 1 p.m. today, and contract restructurings will allow them to carry Jimmy Garoppolo’s charge, if needed.
Today marks the NFL’s new financial year, and before you start singing Auld Lang Syne for a Jimmy Garoppolo farewell, the 49ers took predictable measures to potentially delay his exportation.
Some $18.8 million was cleared by restructuring their contracts, ESPN’s Field Yates reported Wednesday morning, a day after the 49ers gained $5 million by again restructuring Dee Ford’s albatross of a contract. Armstead was to command a $14.2 million base salary and Kittle an $11.5 million salary prior to their restructurings.
Now, the 49ers aren’t forced to push Garoppolo out ASAP. They will still field offers for him, a process that’s dragged on for months and could continue for many more. His shoulder rehabilitation is expected to keep him from throwing until July. Those teams’ quarterback situations are unsettled — along with those of the Indianapolis Colts and the Seattle Seahawks — the 49ers are fully expected to press forward with 2021 No. 3 overall draft pick Trey Lance as Garoppolo’s successor, and with Nate Sudfeld re-signed as the backup.Linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair and guard Daniel Brunskill drew one-year tenders as restricted free agents, and Al-Shaair’s case is particularly interesting.
