Raiders' Jimmy Garoppolo feels healthy, wants to get back on field

HENDERSON, Nev. -- Speaking for the first time since he was benched in the wake of Josh McDaniels' firing as coach back in October, Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo talked Monday of how "weird" the season was for him on a personal level.

Garoppolo signed a three-year, $72.75 million free agent contract in March despite needing surgery on his left foot after six star-crossed seasons with the San Francisco 49ers. He spoke on how he was never truly right physically after the surgery but also how he looks forward to entering the offseason healthy and competing for a starting gig again next season, be it in Las Vegas or elsewhere.
