First, some teams genuinely believe that he cant play. They think hes shot. Id put that number around 20 percent.
Second, some teams fear the backlash from fans after getting him. They think there might be protests or (President) Trump will tweet about the team. Id say that number is around 10 percent. Then theres another 10 percent that has a mix of those feelings.
Third, the rest genuinely hate him and cant stand what he did [kneeling for the national anthem]. They want nothing to do with him. They wont move on. They think showing no interest is a form of punishment. I think some teams also want to use Kaepernick as a cautionary tale to stop other players in the future from doing what he did.

There are no league pensions. Players have to make and save their money. Most don’t. Statistically, most NFL players are broke when they retire. K got a fat contract, so it depends on whether he saved the money or blew it. Given what a putz he is, I’m betting on the latter.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Jets took a chance on him. They’re desperate for a QB, and they’ve made plenty of dumb moves in the past.
Too bad so sad.
Watched 10 minutes of football this year.
Looks like I can live without it.
It is. It's called shunning and it's an age-old method of showing disfavor. Every decent human American should turn their back on him - wherever he goes. Until he learns not to be such a dic....or he offs himself (I'm fine either way).
...or a greeter at some sleazy casino in Vegas.
Mercury News is a racist website and has about the same credibility as the neo-Nazi Stormfront. The site should be banned from FR, IMO.
Maybe he should try his luck in Canada. They might see his disrespect for the US flag as a plus.
Until his Muslim girlfriend convinces him to kneel for "Oh, Canada"
Rats are rodents and don’t get rabies.
Go Pats !!!!!!!!!

NFL players have a pension. They become vested after three seasons and they can draw monthly check at 55.
Canadian football for this loser
I know his puke was raised by a rich white couple. Living in the ghetto would be a nightmare for him..
Actions have consequences. Liberals are genuinely astounded when they learn this fundamental law of nature for the first time..........as adults. Whereas most of us learned it as children and wised up early on.
But OJ has been living off his 25k a month NFL pension since he was aquited for murder. So there is a retirement, right?
The dude is as over as last week's gallon of milk, and being a sanctimonious asshole only compounds his over-ness.
“Earlier this week he made a video pitch for Turkish Airlines to help Somalia relief efforts.”
She is on $oro$ team. They’ll do just fine. :(
Stupid, ungrateful punk deserves what he gets.
Over the years I have been on a lot of teams....and he is not a team player, he brought disgrace to his team by his selfish self centered actions....I would have tossed him off immediately.....or at least ordered him to remain in the locker room until the real athletes had stood for the anthem.
