Kaepernick tweets he's 'still ready' for NFL return
    ESPN
Aug. 7, 2019


Colin Kaepernick has made another statement that he is continuing to pursue an NFL job despite not having played in the league since 2016.

In a video posted to Twitter and Instagram on Wednesday, Kaepernick is shown working out in a gym, saying he has been doing so for the past three years and that he is "still ready." ...

The video starts with a counter saying he has been "denied work for 889 days." The total comes from the Twitter account @KapWatch, which has kept track of Kaepernick's ongoing free agency since he opted out of his contract with the San Francisco 49ers in March 2017.  ... Rest of story
Surely there's an indoor football team that needs him. Give the AAL a call, Kap. They're sure to call back.
The abnormal is not the normal just because it is prevalent.

He might get a spot on a new transgender league.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Kaepernick has been "denied work?"  Nonsense.  Maybe the local McDonald's is hiring.

The guy is lousy.  According to one of his former coaches, he could not take direction.  He wouldn't adapt to the team's playing style.  And now that he has shown himself to be a disruptive force, what team would want to waste time and money on him?
