McDaniels and Ziegler were let go mid-season and linebacker coach Antonio Pierce was made interim head coach. In January‚ the Raiders announced that Pierce would be their full-time head coach with Tom Telesco taking over as general manager. With new leadership in Vegas there’s reportedly no commitment to keeping Garoppolo‚ ESPN noted.

His best year with San Francisco was the 2019-2020 season when he helped take the team to Super Bowl LIV against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs ended up beating the 49ers in the Super Bowl 31-20.
