Patriots back up quarterback’s first NFL game will be the one he plays in tomorrow
Jimmy Garoppolo is a very solid quarterback, but he has never been to an NFL game in his entire life. Well tomorrow, the second rounder from Eastern Illinois will finally be live at an event. The wild thing is he will be playing likely in the game.

Jimmy Garoppolo: “I’ve never actually been to an NFL game before, so this will technically be my first one, I guess.”
Expect the Patriots to really let the young gun slinger get a good look. I would not be surprised to see him get the second team snaps, because Ryan Mallett might be in the dog house in New England.
