I guess some more of the story could be...

He couldn't read a defense if they wore name tags.
Notorious for never reading through his progressions.
Took way too many sacks.
In 2015 it was widely reported that he was not popular in the locker room.
The 49ers made it very public that they wanted to get rid of him before his contract was up.
He went 11-24 in his last three seasons with a Super Bowl caliber team.

And then he kneeled.

If you wanna lionize him for his social stances, that's cool, but lets not pretend he was anything more than a below average qb.
His last year as a QB he had 2,241 yards and 16 TD’s to 4 INT’s. 468 yards and 2 TD’s on the ground as well. Not to mention, those teams were far from Super Bowl caliber after Harbaugh left. At the very least he should be a backup and on a NFL roster. He’s not a bum. When he was coming out they worried about him coming from a system that was based on the pistol. Guess what offense is popular in the NFL now?

Lots of holes in this analysis, and taking the time to point what is wrong probably want do any good. People only believe what they want to. Calling him below average is just not reality, but you're entitled to that opinion.

Kaepernick sucks. Who wants to fight?

Re: Saints won’t be at Colin Kaepernick’s workout

Why is a player who's been out of football as long as he has been even being considered as capable to play now?

It's because he changed the narrative about him pouting when he got benched. He is trying to convince people that it is a moral issue and not his sense of morality. He is a cry baby that wasn't that good to begin with. He has done a wonderful job of misrepresenting the facts to suit himself.

He reminds me of a black Trump. Never admit guilt. Keep in the public eye whatever it takes. See. It has nothing to do with color and everything to do with perception and building it around whatever lies best fit your scenario.

Taysom Hill turned 29 this year, so he isn't in his 30's.
