Patriots Backup: Jimmy Garoppolo
Thanks to Brady's "Deflategate" suspension, the Patriots got an opportunity to see what they had in backup Jimmy Garoppolo. The 25-year-old has been Brady's backup since 2014, meaning that he already has a Super Bowl ring. Garoppolo was impressive in his start against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 1, but was injured during his Week 2 start against Miami. After Brady returned, Garoppolo made appearances in blowouts. He finished 2016 with no interceptions, four touchdowns and 502 passing yards. (Getty)
