Colin Kaepernick To Get A Private Workout For NFL Teams On Saturday
2019-11-14
FWIW, I got a permanent ban on commenting at Power Line on this issue because of a) my use of indelicate language and / or b) opining that Kaepernick should remain unemployed, primarily due to the Left's efforts to deplatform / doxx / get us fired from our jobs, assaulting us with bike locks, and chasing us out of restaurants. I told them to keep the ban in place, as they're now right there with NRO on the 'will never read again' sites of mine.
[Bleacher Report] - Colin Kaepernick will have an opportunity to show NFL teams he's still in prime shape to return to the league.

Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, the league will hold a private Kaepernick workout on Saturday that includes on-field work and an interview in Atlanta. Every club is invited to attend. Video of the workout and interviews will also be made available to teams.

Per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the NFL arranged for Kaepernick to work out after "several clubs" inquired about his readiness and he and his representatives continued to publicly express his desire to get back into the league.
My football opinion - he'll never return to the NFL, this is all bullshit to appease the lefties, the league is pushing teams into this, who will respond by sending their special teams scouts to watch this farce, and that's a good thing he'll never come back.

#15  I'm sure he stands with Mainland China against Hong Kong. After all, he likes Che and Castro. A Nike/Le Bron Naturalâ„¢

#14  Follow the $$$. He made a pile of money from his virtue-signaling minstrel show for Nike.

The corporation gets to appear more-woke-than-thou in its battle for share of the urban sneaker head market.

The minstrel pockets millions and no longer has to worry about age or injury or underperformance on the field.

Win-win!

#13  It's not enough to get paid. A social justice warrior must keep fighting for social justice, must keep virtue signaling, must keep making trouble for the sake of making trouble.

And attention whores need attention.

In the name of Allan, look at meeeeeeeee!

#12  If he'd done this after or during WWII, he'd of been beaten to death on the field and no one would have been arrested. I don't care what freaking color his skin is, he's a worthless self admitted traitor and should at a very minimum, be banished from this country.

#11  Wasn't his last season with the 49ers a 2-14 disgrace? Who would want to repeat that--especially with him being a few years older and out of practice now?

#10  So, like 12 year old girls wondering who showed up at who's slumber party?

Didn't he have a game where he had more turnovers than yards gained? Made the butt-fumble look productive.

#8  The 49ers improved upon their 4–12 record from the previous season, and began the season 8–0 for the first time since 1990, during the Joe Montana era. By starting 8–0, the 49ers were also guaranteed their first non-losing season since 2014. - Wiki

Who needs another losing QB? Really?
