Let’s recap. Kaepernick went 3-16 as a starter from 2015-2017. He completed less than 60-percent of his passes. Then, he sued the NFL. He has not played in an NFL game in 2,080 days. He’s had a sham workout, two tryouts — he also had a look with the Seahawks 2017, but wouldn’t accept backup QB money even though he would have been … a backup — and remained unsigned by the teams who even gave him the courtesy of coming in. He made a documentary and compared the NFL Draft Combine to slavery.
Despite that, we have to have an obligatory conversation about a potential return. SMH, as the kids would say.
Who brought up Colin Kaepernick today, you ask? This will come as a total shock, but it was actually ESPN! Crazy, right. Ready for the really crazy part? It was brought up by Stephen A. Smith! Take a moment to gather yourself, I know that must have come as shock to the system.
OK, good. Now, watch for yourself:
Stephen A Smith thinks the Dallas Cowboys should give Colin Kaepernick a call, despite that he hasn’t played in over 5 years.
He says they won’t, though, not because he isn’t good enough but because Texas is too “patriotic.”
More good stuff from ESPN. 🤦🏻♂️ pic.twitter.com/92iZ8h1yZo
