Quarterback Colin Kaepernick has told CBS that he would stand during the national anthem if given a chance to play football in the NFL again.

According to a report by Jason La Canfora on Sunday, Kaepernick has been living in New York and working out privately in New Jersey with the hope of signing with a team this season.

Kaepernick kneeled during the national anthem last season to bring more attention to the killings of black men by police officers. The protests spread this season after the former San Francisco 49er was unable to sign on with another team.

So Colin you are broke, your gf left you and no one will hire you. Get on your knees and pray to God, the True God, that you can be saved. You have done a great job so far screwing up a great life

Not just his...all the gutless wonders who ki$$ed his @$$, we’re too gutless to say nay, all the folks suffering collateral damage (fans, vendors, etc). That guy is the football version of Typhoid Mary.

Don’t owners know that everyday this continues, the value of their franchises decrease. Guess each one has lost $200,000,000 from 2015 value. Hey it’s only money

How PATHETIC!

“Please let me play! I promise to be good if you’ll give me a chance. I won’t act up any more and I’ll praise to love America if only you’ll give me a fat paycheck. Honest! I won’t ask much — only maybe $10 million.”

Whiner & loser! Piss on him! Who would hire a loser like that?

He should be down on both knees begging for forgiveness and then stand up for the pledge.

Then ride off into the sunset and be a barkeep somewhere in a remote desert town. "Hey, did I ever tell you about the time I played in the NFL? I coulda been a contender!" That bar would lose customers so fast they'd be broke by nightfall.

Unbelievable... CBS's Jason La Canfora apparently just gave his personal opinion about whether Kaepernick would stand or kneel. Can the media be any more stupid than they are?
