Jimmy Garoppolo is a Finalist for Week 9 FedEx Air Player of the Week

Jimmy Garoppolo has a chance to become the FedEx Air Player of the week after his stellar performance in the 49ers win over the Cardinals on Thursday night.

Today, the NFL announced the San Francisco 49ers’ Jimmy Garoppolo is a finalist for this week’s FedEx Air Player of the Week award for his outstanding performance against the Arizona Cardinals. Garoppolo completed 28 of 37 attempts (75.7 percent) for 317 yards, 4 touchdowns and 0 interceptions for a 136.9 passer rating in the 49ers’ close 28-25 win. 

This is Garoppolo’s second nomination of the season, and if he wins, he’ll follow teammate Tevin Coleman who won the FedEx Ground Player of the Week last week. The 49ers just continue to pump out impressive top performances that are finally being recognized. It'll be tough for a player to stand out next week with the Seattle Seahawks coming to town, but anything can happen.
