I’m thinking a team will take him for bottom dollar. He’ll want more, team will tell him to pound sand up his ass and then he’ll take the deal. He’s trying to get back on the field to prove he’s more than an activist clown, even though he’s not good. He’ll get on a roster, be given some playing time, fail miserably and be cut, as soon as someone more coachable and with more potential can be found.

On a side note, didn’t he get a very sizeable chunk of money some time last year? Over $10 million or something crazy like that?

Any team that signs this clown will be subjected to his media circus.

This dude is poison

You may be correct, however, as a 6 year veteran, the collective barging agreement would require a salary of at least $800,000. There are at least a dozen one or two year veterans with enough upside potential they were retained by teams on their practice squads. They are available to be picked up by any team for half Kaepernick's cost and none of his baggage. Under the salary cap, $400,000 is often the difference in keeping a good player.

Two years ago, the Seahawks inquired about hiring him as a backup. He wanted like $12 million a year, i.e., what a starter would get. They said never mind. He was never really interested in playing.
