Oh they're just opening themselves up to a lawsuit or social media backlash when they find he still isn't that good and don't sign him for a billion dollars.

With all the charges and accusations swirling around quite a few NFL players, I'd say this is a bit past due.  
 

Sorry if anyone's sentimentality for a world that never was is harmed along the way.

Again, right or wrong, he is at a point now where he is going to be a major distraction anywhere he signs.

Distraction for who? Distracting to fans? Because I've never heard of teammates having any issues with him.

For the team because half the questions the media will ask the players/coaches all year will be on kaepernick.

glad you conveniently cut his career in half to make your point. You couldn’t be more transparent if you tried.

NFL stands for Not For Long, my friend...it’s a “What have you done for me lately” business...and it’s a privilege to play in the league, not a right... 👍

It is a privilege that numerous other lesser quarterbacks have enjoyed since the year Kaepernick was blackballed for having inconvenient opinions. You cutting his career in half and not even mentioning some of the straight up garbage QBs employed by NFL teams since that blackballing proves everything I need to know about you and your level of understanding of this.

Nonsense...and I disagree with your premise about black balls...😉

Cheers on your lazy failed attempt to be funny. And I have no doubt that my reply would make no sense to you.

Did he turn down Cleveland? Seems like a certain fit there…🤷🏼‍♂️ 
i had to get that shot in there. This clown was benched before his exodus for a reason, he was washed up. This is a nothing burger.

Exactly.

 

Just ask Nathan Peterman.

49ers offered him a contract...Kaep turned it down...

Guys get hired for different reasons...Most for their talent, some are good character guys (locker room), others are hired because they are like an extra coach on the field, and in the film room...

 

Says a lot that nobody has wanted Kaep for any of those three categories...

 

And I’m so grateful that McBeane saw right through that BS, and knew it would be a cancer to this team...👍

back on that ol’ chestnut huh. You know the details of that contract? Of course not. Either way, doesn’t explain the next 6 years does it? 
 

Seriously, show me you CHUD level of this topic some more.

There are plenty of NFL QBs that don't justify a spot on an NFL roster.

 

Kaepernick took a controversial and unpopular stand and as a result he's a pariah.

 

If a team signs him there will be intense media scrutiny and the teams don't want to engage that kind of distraction.

 

That's why he's not in the league.

we’re down to relying on clichés. Guess that’s an obvious endpoint.

I agree with everything except the part about QBs that aren’t justified in being on a roster...if players are on a roster, coaches and GMs felt it was justified, regardless of what fans think...

Raiders might be the ideal spot for him if there is any.  Clear cut starter in Carr who just got paid.  Weak options at backup (Stidham, Mullens, Gabers).  An owner who's spoken positively of him in the past and a franchise with a rebellious history.
