Garoppolo's Instagram hints at trade, but account was hacked

Jimmy Garoppolo sent the NFL world - the early-rising segment of the NFL world, at least - into overdrive when a photo was posted to his Instagram account Friday morning that seemed to indicate Garoppolo had been traded.

The photo, which includes the caption "So grateful for my time in New England. Peace out Boston" was posted to the New England Patriots' backup quarterback's account some time around 4 a.m. ET on Friday.

The post has since been deleted. Here's how it looked:

Garoppolo is rumored to be a trade target for teams including the Cleveland Browns, but his agent Don Yee confirmed reports that the post was the work of a hacker and not Garoppolo himself.
