Kaepernick’s problem is NOT his politics. He is a terrible QB past whatever prime he had.
However, saying politics is not his problem is like when hearing that JC Penney’s is closing another 138 stores, saying that politics had nothing to do with that!
He was nowhere near the worst starting QB in the league last year. He had a 16-4 TD to INT ratio and can run the football. He also very little talent at receiver to work with last year.
But, it makes no sense to bring him in as backup and deal with all the controversy he brings with him.
