Note to Kaepernick:

Do not sue the people who control you future employment.

If he plays out of the country then he won’t get to kneel for our anthem. That’s a non-starter for SJW super-activist Kap.

CFL teams are required to set aside most of their roster for Canadians. Kaepernick would be considered an “import” player. And likely no team would waste one of their limited import tags on a guy who might not even crack the starting lineup.

Exactly that. It was a total PR stunt to try and keep himself relevant.

The world has moved on from the Colin Kaepernick clown show and he knows this. He is just unwilling to accept it.

Ironically, the XFL is getting ready to start in 2020. Usually a new league means a 2nd (or last) chance for players like Colin, but in this case, Vince McMahon has laid down the law - no kneeling, no politics. So instead of a possible second chance, another door closes.

2-30 record, even CFL teams will avoid..

Yeah, and I think SFO is actually having a good season this year without him.

He was offered a contract with AAF and turned it down.

Course AAF didn’t last too long...

“He had one decent year then went into a decline. Now 3 years out of the game.

Any chances he has would be in the CFL or Europe.’

Kaepernick has burned a lot of bridges. Before the kneeling he was seen as an a$$hole by the 49ers. He was walking around listening to beats headphones around the complex refusing to speak to anyone after losses. It got to the point coaches were calling him out. He’s called other players “f*cking n*ggers” while playing, which everyone knows about, making him look hypocritical. He was known to not even look at game plans like Jamarcus Russell.
Now let’s talk about his play. He can’t scan the left side of the field. He can only throw and run going to the right, everyone knows that. His touch and timing passes are really bad. He’s got a cannon for an arm and can run. But he doesn’t fit most NFL offenses. That’s why he’s not back in San Francisco. He’s a zone read quarterback, and no one wants a pure zone read guy any more. He might be able to develop into a different type of system but no one wants to pay him $10 million a year to do that. Also, he would create such a distraction with his off the field activities that, in the judgment of those teams, he is not worth the trouble or the money or gamble.

Let’s look at his injuries. Since I don’t want to fill up a page on this, let’s just sum it up and say he’s physically torn up, particularly his throwing shoulder.

So you’ve got a guy who wants starter money even if he’s not a starter, who can’t stay healthy, is already torn up, who can’t scan half the field and can’t throw touch passes. He’s also a huge a$$hole to teammates and opposing players. Who wants or needs him?

RG3 is a backup QB with, I believe, Baltimore.

Think he did some mop up duty recently for the Ravens.

He was average QB 3 years ago when he was let go... I highly doubt his abilities have improved given he hasn’t played a game in years....

Who wants the drama circus this arse clown is going to bring to your organization?

The NFL is only starting to recover from the damage this moron caused them, they were fools to even talk to this buffoon again, let alone treat him like any sort of serious recruit.

He doesn’t really want to play. He enjoys playing the NFL’s persecuted martyr without actually having to prove anything on the field. He went to his “workout” wearing a Kunta Kinte shirt and with an entourage wearing shirts saying, “I know my rights.” If actually want a job, you don’t go to the interview wearing clothing with provocative slogans and “attitude.”

100% correct.
He'll get old and bitter: his just reward for his behavior.

Isn't that from "COOL HAND LUKE" with Paul Newman and Martin Strothers?
What we have here is failure to communicate.
