Colin Kaepernick workout will the LAR after not playing since 2016 does he have a shot at playing again ?  Rest versus rust ?

From SI  The Spun :

.....Colin Kaepernick worked out for the Las Vegas Raiders two weeks ago, opening the door to a long-awaited NFL return. Derek Carr doesn't seem to mind the possibility.

Per ESPN's Paul Gutierrez, Carr told reporters Tuesday that Kaepernick would "be great" in their locker room.

"I don't want to speak for everybody in that kind of sense -- I don't want someone mad at me for saying, 'I think it would be great,' -- but I know him and I would get along great," Carr said. "I know we have in the past, and I think we would again. I think for the most part, I think he'd get along great with our guys."

Kaepernick has not played in the NFL since 2016, and the Raiders represented the quarterback's first official workout since. While some fans questioned Carr's sincerity, others are eager to see Kaepernick return to the gridiron....

He definitely wasn't out of the league originally because he was bad. He wasn't 

As long as they're not colluding, teams can do as they see fit. 

 

Could he get back into it now? Idk. You're basically using a roster spot to develop an old QB (he'll need time to get back) instead of using that spot on a rookie QB or something. 

Unless he's killing it in closed workouts I don't think it's worth it. 

 

He looked good at Michigan's spring game but those were just throwing drills.

Like everybody else if he could play the game before and has stayed in shape no reason he can't still play if the surroundings are what they need to be. If not nobody is going to look great.

He told the Broncos to go piss up a rope because he didn't want to be a backup.

I think that the BROWNS FO better be watching the Kaepernick story and every other quarterback related story out there right now to try to help them get out of this horrendous mess they've got themselves into.

Do I believe that is 98.6% correct.  Fuck yes !

Unless you think that the BROWNS are ready to roll right now going into the 2022 preseason.  :lol:

GO 2022 BROWNS,  just do something right.....baby.

They probably are considering him since Jimmy has decided to take over from the Raiders at the scumbag landing spot of the NFL. Too bad Aaron Hernandez is no longer available. Michael Vick,  Sam Hurd or Ray Lewis might have some gas in the tank?

Like it or not, CK does have more than enough arm to be a backup in the league.  Starter for any reason other than injury.. no, he was one and run even in his last years playing.  But it is funny to see people thinking anyone would sign him to a contract seemingly on the spur of the moment.  Even players drafted in low rounds are interviewed - UDFA's who are cut candidates also.

Has any NFL team ever signed someone without first talking to them and/or working them out?

Well let's look at Colin Kaepernick's NFL stats,  and how far is he off of his 2016 numbers.   Can he ever be rehabilitated to then ?  How good was he ?

Did you know Colin Kaepernick ran for 181 yards in the 49ers playoff win over the Packers on January 12, 2013. that that remains a record for most rushing yards by a QB in any NFL game (regular season or playoffs)?

( ^^ see above CK NFL stat chart)

In 5 seasons he only had 1 good year ?  In 2013 12-4 career high 21 TDs 3197 yards  in his last winning season 9 years ago !  And was SF that bad ?

I thought he was some hot-shot QB before he got kicked out of football.   Hmmmmmmmm.  Reboot time ?
