how a team is handling its quarterback position in the 2022 season.

Favre is clearly a fan of Garoppolo's proven resume. He has taken the 49ers to a Super Bowl

[{"selector":"#anim-f5e683db-ebc1-4f95-a087-1744ccba063a [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-28.017241175554968%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

and reached the NFC championship game for the second time last season.

The 49ers drafted Lance third overall in 2021,

[{"selector":"#anim-b855e101-5e26-42bd-8a7c-80464dcdfc82 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-33.12499989760315%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

and are fully committed to making him a starter for 2022.

[{"selector":"#anim-4528d39b-f948-411b-bd35-a352081cfced [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-31.26831043321183%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

They are looking to trade Garoppolo, but have had difficulty finding a market for them.

[{"selector":"#anim-910d057e-1158-44a0-b8ed-5c2574755f94 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-21.874999829338588%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

Part of this is due to a salary of $24 million.

[{"selector":"#anim-b1706bdb-f31d-4955-bdd6-817fbf94f1de [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-34.1867468919976%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

The 49ers are adamant that Lance is ready. Favre isn't as confident,

[{"selector":"#anim-b87f7ab4-7a30-420b-90c1-6bacb6c99ad2 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-10.85937476249621%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

and some within the NFL seem to agree with his point of view.
