Colin Kaepernick Gets A Tryout With The Raiders |
2022-05-26 |
I'm inclined to think new head coach Josh McDaniels, formerly the offensive coordinator with the New England Patriots, is being told to do this by the Raiders GM or that idiot owner Mark Davis, who clearly isn't Al Davis. [SportsIllustrated] Colin Kaepernick Has Secured a Workout With Raiders, per Report Colin Kaepernick, who hasn’t played in the NFL since 2016, is scheduled to work out for the Raiders, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport confirmed the report and added the workout is Wednesday. The workout will be at the team facility and coach Josh McDaniels along with general manager Dave Ziegler will be in attendance, according to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer. Kaepernick last played for the 49ers and was eventually released at the end of the 2016 season. He was never signed by a team in free agency after he made waves in the NFL for kneeling during the national anthem before games to protest police brutality and institutionalized racism in America. SI is just as bad as ESPN in the woke department. Also - he doesn't have a fuckin' prayer of making an NFL roster even as a backup - he's been out of football almost six years now. I'm not aware of any athlete in any sport coming back to the big time after that long a layoff. And even if he did, how well would he be received in the locker room after this incredibly stupid and counterproductive stunt? Don't go away mad, Colin, just go away.

#19 The NFL could be giving out free season tickets and I still would not go to or watch a game. They shot themselves in the A$$ with all their allowed Kneeling and disrespect to America done by their $$ Millionaire Player race pimps. |

#18 If the dead man satisfies the "Rooney Rule," maybe not. |

#17 2 games more than a dead man So you are saying he is not the worst possible choice. |

#15 Colin Kaepernick did lead the 49ers to a 2-14 record in his last season, so there is that to recommend him. |

#13 -Ref #7: Oh my Gods! That's actually Al Davis' son. I can remember when the Raiders were on top of the world and Al Davis was a god. Let'em sign Kaepernick and good luck with that. |

#11 I mourned the passing of Al Davis. I hoped that his son Mark would carry on with the Commitment to Excellence. These days I just don't pay much attention. |

#10 Al Davis must be thrilled (somewhere?) that his kid is creepier looking than him. |

#8 So what is this country really standing for? The flag, anthem, the vote and to sing praises to God. |

#7 Well, this is only because Mark Davis opened his mouth... He also pays for this haircut![]() |

#6 ..you get someone who can't see beyond his racist glasses at the world and can't put the obvious existence of a multi-tiered justice system based upon whether you are a member of the Inner Party, the Outer Party or just a prole. |

#5 COLIN KAEPERNICK SAYS HILLARY CLINTON SHOULD BE IN JAIL "I mean, you have Hillary who's called black teens or black kids super-predators. You have Donald Trump who's openly racist. I mean, we have a presidential candidate (Hillary) who's deleted emails and done things illegally and is a presidential candidate. That doesn't make sense to me, because if that was any other person, you'd be in prison. So what is this country really standing for?" |

#3 A Solar Eclipse, or, The Natural An accident victim demands His chance with the Astros. The stands Full of fans groan with glee A he falls to one knee And still hauls in a drive... with no hands. |

#2 Lets invite cancer into the locker-room so he and his wife can create more divisive press moments. Genius. |

#1 Bah! Humbug! IIRC, Kaepernick had one decent year when the SF 49'ers instituted the RPO (Run/Pass Option) offensive scheme and the opposing defenses didn't have a good handle on it.** Soon opposing defenses developed schemes for it (because it was a fairly common College football offense) and Kap-er-dummy started fading into backbench irrelevance. **Never was impressed with the RPO because I watched a lot of Option football played by Oklahoma in the 'Wishbone Era'. The plan everybody ended up was "Make the quarterback run with the ball and tackle him until he breaks -- sooner or later..." You really don't see any old RPO quarterbacks, if you get what I mean. |
