Jimmy G is back in the NFC West.

According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, Garoppolo is signing a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Rams and will be the backup to Matthew Stafford.

Garoppolo will have to miss the first two games of the 2024 season for violating the league’s performance-enhancing drug policy.

Jimmy G spent one season with the Las Vegas Raiders after signing a three-year, $72.5 million contract with them last season. He didn’t play well for them, completing just 65% of his passes for 1,205 yards, seven touchdowns and nine interceptions. He was eventually benched for rookie Aidan O’Connell.
