Colin Kaepernick is still seeking to return to the NFL, a decade after he was run out of the league for kneeling during the national anthem.
Paparazzi caught up with Kaepernick’s girlfriend, Nessa Diab, a radio and TV host, while she was in New York. She explained that Kaepernick, now 37, remarkably retains the dream of returning to the league that he was last seen playing in 2016 for the San Francisco 49ers.

He had one decent year, in an otherwise mediocre career. If he was as good as he thinks he is, he”d have been playing.
Yeah - he should become Stephen A. Smith's running mate. He would make Smith sound like the Voice of Reason. :)
In addition to being woke, Kaepernick lacks the discipline and talent to play in the NFL. Football is an especially tough game at the pro level and coaches have no tolerance for goof-balls in the hope that they will somehow develop into good players.
