Jets, Miami, Pitt, Bills, Giants, Jags, guys these teams need a QB. CK is better than most of these QB's today. He's 4-2 in the playoffs, 1 Superbowl.
All of you are wrong the NFL is riding this rollercoaster of bs because of his statement stop beating up and killing blacks and calling it justifiable now he wasn't talking about the arm Forces stupid people Colin got paid because the NFL was wrong for what they done to him about it and if he did come to Pittsburgh we have fans all over the world a select few stop going to bad some body else can have them seats real fans is about the team get off it
Lol he is idiot attitude, isn't worth the price of him being a quarterback. He would have played for Baltimore if it wasn't for his mouth.
Did he really just suggest the agent is why nobody wants to sign Kap?
To late he a unpatriotic moron let him rot
Ain’t no one hiring him, he will never play another NFL game
Good old ESPN keeps trying to get someone to hire this dude. He should go work for Nike, they like to talk out of both sides of their mouths too.
Steve, keep to basketball. Your NFL takes suck. Kapernick is overrated. He kneeled for the first time as a backup so his activism got a backup released not a starter. Tough to sign when he thinks he's a starter and should get paid for it. If he understood his role better I may say to take a chance.
Colin is not oppressed. Colin is not a victim. He is entitled and wants to be treated with special rules because he's an NFL player. Don't forget that the NFL is a business and an NFL field is PRIVATE PROPERTY. If you are an NFL player then you are on the clock when you are wearing that uniform and standing on that field. You then have to abide by a certain code of conduct just like anybody else at any other job. Kaep may not have liked that part of playing in the NFL but he sure had no problems cashing those paychecks din't he? If you don't want to abide by the rules while on the clock, then just like any business the owner of that business has a right kick you off the pay roll. Colin can complain all he wants about unfair treatment but the truth is that he was treated just like many other players who have caused bad PR for their employer, he was let go.
One. Colin didn’t have a clue was he was protesting.
Secondly He had a few chances already to come back to the NFL
Which he and his girlfriend ruined those chances.
And third of all he’s not getting black balled. It simply nobody wants a drama queen on their team anymore
He’s a bigger distraction then anything.
Last thing is Colin was never that good. The 49ers head coach made him good and took that team to a Super Bowl.
Now can we stop talking about him.
He’s irrelevant because games are on Sunday and he’s not playing.
First amendment to kneel but not to hire who they want?
Send him to Denver 🐎
I rather lose ever game in a season than have Krapernick as QB.
The Steelers are looking to the draft to get Tua from Alabama why should I want Kaepernick a big distraction
When did Al sharptin become a sports caster
Any body else just wish Stephen a would just shut the f up about everything forever
He showed that he wasn't what he was thought to be. His last 2 seasons were terrible, granted he didn't play the entire seasons. They won 7 games in those years and his performance was pretty terrible. He could possibly be a backup somewhere but I think he has made it clear that he can't be the one you have to rely on.
Good lord... Here we go again... It's weird, that when Tebow kneeled it was very off-putting too many in the media and fans... but the opposite with Colin, it's heroic (especially the media). Same with their skills.. Going to Super Bowl it's all Colin... Yet a playoff drive and win, it's all Denver D, because Tebow actually stinks. Some hypocracy there. Strange similarities, but yet different.
Why wasn’t the fact that he sued the NFL mentioned? It’s the most obvious answer to why he’ll never play QB in the league again, you don’t sue someone then ask them for a job...
No fucking way. Stay away from the cancer!
