    The sign Colin Kaepernick will never play in the NFL again

    There will be those that of course will claim racism, but the stark truth is that Kaepernick cost the NFL alot of money and the teams know if they sign him they will lose money.


    If we learned anything from the ongoing quarterbacking saga of the Redskins this past week it is this: It appears all but certain Colin Kaepernick will never play another NFL down.


    If the quarterback-desperate Redskins — who lost starter Alex Smith to a broken leg that has become more serious since surgery then backup Colt McCoy also to a fractured leg — didn’t even invite the former 49ers quarterback in for a workout, then who will?


    The Redskins signed Mark Sanchez to be McCoy’s backup when Smith went down, and now Sanchez, who was out of the league until two weeks ago, is the starter, backed up by someone named Josh Johnson, who was signed off the street this past week.


    Prior to the signing of Sanchez, the Redskins also brought in T.J. Yates, EJ Manuel and Kellen Clemens for a look. That group owns a collective 12-24 record as NFL starters among them.


    But no Kaepernick, despite his rare physical skills and the fact that he led the 49ers to a Super Bowl.

    Actions have consequences- Kaepernick made his brand toxic. We have another thread discussing the phenomena.

    He's still popular among left wing revolutionaries. I think he has a website dedicated to revolution now. Yes, here: https://kaepernick7.com/

    It also helps that Kap isn't much of a quarterback. All flash and no consistency , no touch, no feel for or in the pocket. It would be interesting to see what the response would have been if a real super star had done this. Say Russell Wilson. , Newton. Even Gurley, Brown or Kamaria. Hopefully we will never know.

    Kaepernick had a brief run when his style was something new. They figured out quickly that if you keep him in the pocket, he’s ineffective.

    That and zone defense. It limited his running and he lacked the accuracy to pick it apart.

    Correct. That’s what separated Russell Wilson from Kaepernick. Keep Wilson in the pocket and he tears apart a defense.
