Whether you’re looking for one Jimmy Garoppolo Rookie Card, a handful of different ones or more than 30 of them, there are plenty of options. Arriving in 2014, both Panini and Topps were producing cards at the time, meaning lots of sets and themes at a bunch of price levels.
Like Garoppolo’s on-field career, his cards have taken quite the journey. He spent several seasons in New England with quite possibly the best seat to watch Tom Brady. It wasn’t that Garoppolo wasn’t good, he just never got much of a chance to showcase his talents with the Patriots.
A trade to San Francisco in 2017 changed everything. All of a sudden, Garopplo was The Man. After going 5-0 to close out the 49ers season, Jimmy Garoppolo Rookie Cards soared. The combination of the San Francisco fan base and speculation on what might be kicked it.
And seemingly just like that, the quarterback was hurt early in 2018 and missed the rest of the season. Just as quickly as they rose, Garoppolo’s hobby stock fell again.
He returned in 2019 and was a part of a dominant squad that has put him in the Super Bowl.
There are more than 30 Jimmy Garoppolo Rookie Cards out there. Here they all are, ranked based on their values.
