Kaepernick wants to play in NFL, his lawyer eyes the New England Patriots
FoxNews.com ^ | Feb 17, 2019

Posted on 02/17/2019 7:15:15 AM PST by ETL

The lawyer for former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick said in an interview Saturday that his client still wants to play in the NFL, and predicted that the Carolina Panthers and New England Patriots are likely two teams with interest.

Mark Geragos, the attorney, told CNN that he believes in the next few weeks “somebody is going to step up and do the right thing.”

He said that the Panthers and the Patriots could make a play for the quarterback.

"It would not surprise me is Bob Kraft [the owner of the Patriots] makes a move," he said.

Kaepernick, who hasn’t played a down of football since the 2016 season, accused NFL owners of colluding with each other to keep him out of the league over his protest during the national anthem.

A LOT like Obama, in the sense that he's strongly aligned with the communist movement.

I don’t believe that Bill would want him in the Patriots locker room. He’s poison.

Indeed. Belichick is a very no nonsense coach. Once you're in his doghouse you're done. He would not accept a known troublemaker like Kaepernick.

I hadn’t seen what he looked like outside of the silhouette t-shirts with the big hair since I abandoned NFL years ago. I’m surprised he’s embraced by the black community.

The reality is he won and lost his starting position with the 49ers while in their employ. They missed three years with him on board. He’s just not that good. That’s why no one is trying to sign him. I cynically suggest the controversy is about him seeking notoriety and relevance in light of his poor career performance and not about civil activism.

Why would the hottest team in pro football sign a mediocre quarterback?

Krap has had it sooooo good. Adopted by a loving, supportive white family, college QB, promoted to starting NFL QB, played in a Superbowl, made tons of money and yet he disses the national anthem with his kneeling for the oppressed peoples in America. Who are the oppressed in the USA Krap? It’s probably we conservatives that’s who. We could kneel at the National anthem in protest against all the traitorous scum in DC but we honor it, the flag and all those who gave their lives in America’s defense plus our great founders and constitution. Krap is an ungrateful leftist puke of privileged fortune and a moronic mindset. I hope no one signs that lout and loser.

Is it even possible that the NFL signed an agreement that included Kaepernik agreeing to never play in the NFL again?

One would think that is what would happen. When no NFL team picks him up, will he sue for collusion again?

Kaepernick social media posts laud Black Lives Matter, Black Panthers,...

August 30, 2016
FoxNews.com

'History!' Kaepernick wrote on Instagram Oct. 15 [2015], when he marked 50 years since the Black Panther Party was founded.

Kaepernick has posted 170 photos or videos on his Instagram account in the four years since he created it. Most of his first 128 posts were pics of him in football gear, publicity photos or shots taken with friends.

But 31 of his last 42 posts have strong social justice connotations, often featuring quotes from radical Nation of Islam leader [communist] Malcolm X, Black Panthers founder Huey Newton and cop killer Assata Shakur [aka, communist-revolutionary JoAnne Chesimard]

During a Sunday news conference about the flag flap, Kaepernick dressed in a black hat with a large, white “X” and a T-shirt that featured photos of Cuban despot Fidel Castro and Malcolm X.”

“With the 49ers visiting the Dolphins this week, San Francisco’s Colin Kaepernick engaged in a conference call with members of the South Florida media. However, one reporter wanted to discuss something that happened in August, when Kaepernick wore a shirt that appeared to show support for Fidel Castro, which led to a tense exchange.

The shirt depicted scenes from a 1960 meeting between Castro and Malcolm X, and it bore the phrase, “Like minds think alike.” Kaepernick wore it to a news conference after the 49ers’ third preseason game, which was when his refusal to stand during the national anthem became a major national story.”

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey [Newton] rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

Tom Brady ain’t retiring and Kaepernick thinks he’s a starter so I would say the Patriots are out.

Kaepernick is now 31.

Unlike Tom Brady (41) Kaepernick has been out of football for years and his skills have likely declined.

Why would any team consider signing him when there are new prospects every year?

They’d have to change the team’s name, for starters.
