No teams have even brought him in to take a look in years. That’s not on him. Guy hasn’t been given a chance. I just find it mind boggling someone ca be punished for what they believe is the right thing.

I find it interesting that he wasn't kneeling when he was the starting QB for the whiners.

Already had the spotlight then.

I'd take a gander that > 50% of people who are punished for anything think what they're doing is alright. Doesn't make it so.

He had his moment, got his payday. Glad he's gone.

It's been so long now. I don't think his head would be in the game with the social justice still flying around and distracting him. If we need a plan C I'd rather take a flier on someone like Landry Jones who is the fringe of the league and didn't get a real chance to prove his worth.

We need to get behind TB. For at least 2 games.

Re: Colin Kaepernick’s agent has contacted quarterback-needy teams

Most people can’t grasp why Colin did what he did until it hits home. His approach wasn’t NFL friendly and he took a risk. If anyone loses someone close at the hands of another our vision of things change. Whether it be police brutality, school shootings or natural disasters. Our view of things change the closer it happens to us. You get NFL fans all over the country stating hurricane Katrina as the reason for the Saints SB victory. We are highly offended by the notion but they think it’s comical.

Not saying he starts but he can hold our clipboard while TB holds it down. In turn, allowing Taysom to do his thang.

With all due respect brother...

1. There is a reason that no teams have looked at him in years. He isn't worth looking at. Look at the 'bad eggs' that are playing, winning clears anyone's reputation in the NFL.... Vick had a career after killing dogs.

2. This is entirely on him and it has nothing what so ever to do with being on his knees. He was offered a contract by the Broncos and he turned it down, also walked out on his commitment with the 49ers... Oh he owns it all right, he owns the crap out of his situation.

At the end of the day he also let some cooch get him sideways with his employer and that didnt help him any either... He is a poster child for bad decisions.

Broncos offered to pick up the remainder of his 49ers contract.... he declined.

He opted out of what he had with the 49ers.
