"It was, without a doubt, Mike Vick," Garoppolo responded. "That guy, I don't know if you played Madden on XBOX or Playstation, man, but he was unbelievable. So, whenever I could, Mike Vick, he was my guy."
Vick burst onto the NFL scene in 2001 and 2002. That would have made Garoppolo about 10 or 11 years old, at the time.
Another young fan asked Garoppolo what it was like playing in the Super Bowl.
"It was unbelievable, man," he responded. "I mean, I couldn't even put it into words. It was something you dream about since you were a little kid, and getting there. We came up short, but we're going to bounce back next year, baby."
And if you ever wondered what Garoppolo would love to do if he wasn't an NFL quarterback, the answer is a NASCAR driver.
"I love driving fast," Garoppolo explained. "When I was little, I loved Fast & Furious, all those movies, and just getting to enjoy them. So, that would definitely be my choice."
You can watch and listen to all of the questions, along with Garoppolo's responses, below.
