The move to acquire Jimmy Garoppolo from the New England Patriots was not the only trade the 49ers pulled off on Oct. 31, 2017.
It was not a surprise the 49ers also dealt cornerback Rashard Robinson at the NFL trade deadline. The shocking part is that the 49ers managed to get a fifth-round selection in return from the New York Jets.
On Friday, the Jets released Robinson, 23, who started just two of the 16 games in which he appeared with the club since the trade.
Then-49ers general manager Trent Baalke selected Robinson, who had been kicked out of LSU, in the fourth round of the 2016 draft.
