All these NFL teams desperately searching for a quarterback who can keep their season from going down the drain are ignoring the obvious. Again. “He is actively, actively interested in trying to play in the NFL,” Mark Geragos, the attorney for Colin Kaepernick, told USA TODAY Sports on Tuesday. “Absolutely.” (Snip) No doubt there are some owners who won’t sign Kaepernick because they’re livid that he dared to shine a spotlight on police brutality of people of color, and the endemic racism in our society that is behind it. History will have the final word on that small-minded and hateful

Watch and see if his race doesn't come in to play. I think he is half black. But that's all he needs. It worked for Obama.

Any team that hires him will lose their fan base. Every team knows this. He affects the NFL just by existing. And his supporters among the players validate what the NFL fans feel.\.
Kaepernick is a poison pill - maybe even a typhoid mary. He carries with him the taint of unAmeicanism and cop-hatred. And we wont put up with it, anymore.

I don't think any NFL coach wants to deal with a political activist as their QB. The QB position must be 100% focused on football, is the on the field team leader, and must be able to work with the coach, the QB position taking much of the coach's time and training. No coach wants to spend years on a QB that is into something other than football. No owner wants a QB where half the fans will not come to the stadium, or watch the team play. I hope this clears it all up for the left.

GWPs still falling all over themselves to appease a people who haven't been enslaved since 1865.

If you have to ask the question, Nanc, then you wouldn't understand the answer. I'll give you a hint though, he's locker room poison.

Hey Nanc, you just dont get it. People who are sport fans actually like the players. Give them a reason to not like you and you are done. Kappy just isn't likeable. Therefore he has no fan base. Therefore he is unworthy of the job. Simple.

Kapie, it's because you couldn't stand up during the National Anthem, bro. You are gone for good.

The NFL has done a pretty good job of destroying the brand by kowtowing to the soyboy liberals who advocate social justice. Sports fans want....sports. Not guilt. Not a lecture. Just entertainment. And now, NFL exec's look on all the empty seats every Sunday and sweat it out, knowing they killed The Golden Goose. And the poster boy for all this is Colin Kaepernick.

So what was the net effect of all the kneeling, other the he’s not a football player anymore, and the NFL have lost tons of fans?

The Steelers, if they were dumb enough to hire him, would lose half their fans. Seriously.
Besides that, he is not good enough, not big enough, not tall enough, and he spreads hate on the playing field like a manure spreader.

Football is supposed to be entertainment. If we, the audience, are not enjoying the show, then the entertainers have failed. And you ask why he doesn’t have a job?

He could try selling his hair to a wig maker if things don't work out.

That ship has sailed; he needs to move on. Besides, Jay-Z said it, whatever it was, was not about Colin getting a job. He can hang it up.

Colin's actively interested in them but they're actively UNinterested in Colin. This is like a guy who refuses to take "no" for an answer from a chick who doesn't want to date him.

Ignorant anti-American dirt bag will never take another NFL snap, and that is wonderful!

Why isn't the NFL interested in him? OK, I'll take a wild guess...because he's not good enough?

This nitwit describes the owners as spiteful and stupid for not hiring this dumber than dirt nitwit? Nancy, Nancy, Nancy have you looked at the half empty stadiums? Winning is one thing but the American people will not stand for a slimeball who looks like something out of a homeless tent and spews nothing but hatred for his country and the rest of us. Apparently you are as dumb as this jerk you are writing about if you even have to ask the question.

Kaepernick didn't call much attention to the virtually non-existent racism and police bias in this country but disrespecting our flag certainly got our attention. People die for that flag, they don't burn it, they don't disrespect it in any way or they pay the price. The NFL was too stupid to heed our warnings and they let their players go to their knees. We voted with our feet. It's called freedom.

The argument that he is an ungrateful fool is accurate. But that isnt why NFL teams dont want him. The NFL tacitly aporoved of his stance and lots of teams overtly approved. Thats part of the empty seat phenomenon
The real reason is that he thinks he is a premier quarterback and wants to be treated like one and he really has snt rhat good. He was a flash that NFL teams caught up with. He cant play in the NFL

Mark Geragos is the trashy lawyer representing him. Doesn’t know that when teams are looking for a quarterback they are not interesting in a guy who was fading fast even before his kneeling episodes began. Maybe Mark needs an office boy. Someone who can empty wastebaskets?

(hit submit too soon)
Didn’t Mark Geragos say - months ago - that he guaranteed Kaepernick would have a job offer “within two weeks”? Geragos is still looking for the receipts Geragos promised he would come up with - the receipts for the clothing and other items that Winona Ryder shoplifted and he contended she had paid for. Tick-tick-tick…

No talent is a pretty simple explanation.
He just isn't any good.

Washed up flash in the pan; 3rd backup or practice squad material (at best) when released by the Niners; and certainly no more game-ready since then.
Get lost.
