The Cowboys could use a veteran backup behind starting quarterback Dak Prescott, but it doesn’t appear free agent Colin Kaepernick is in the club’s plans. Kaepernick is “not a fit” for Dallas, sources tell Todd Archer of ESPN.com.
At present, Kellen Moore is the only quarterback with any level of experience behind Prescott, although the Cowboys also signed two other undrafted college free agent signal-callers, Austin Appleby (Florida) and Cooper Rush (Central Michigan). Earlier this offseason, Dallas looked into free agent Josh McCown, and even met with the veteran, but McCown ultimately signed with the Jets.
Given that Moore has only started two NFL games since entering the league in 2012, the Cowboys seem likely to pursue at least one other veteran quarterback to compete for reserve duties behind Prescott. The free agent market doesn’t offer many inspiring options, but Zach Mettenberger, Luke McCown, Shaun Hill, Robert Griffin III, and Christian Ponder are among the passers Dallas could consider.
The Cowboys have become at least the second team to not express interest in Kaepernick, as the Buccaneers also didn’t target Kaepernick before signing Ryan Fitzpatrick last week. The Seahawks, however, are eyeing Kaepernick to play behind Russell Wilson.
He’s a poison to any team.
How did you feel about Greg hardy?
Just as cancerous, however he actually produced at a solid level on the field for 12 weeks.
He is not a poison he stood up for what he believed in and voiced his opinion and protested in his own way nothi,g wrong with that all of his teammates said he was a good guy so I assume that you are mis informed
If he is misinformed then how come nobody wants to sign him and deal with the drama and fall out of his actions
Its beyond that… the unintelligent way he pushes his beliefs onto others, the pompous attitude, the lack of offensive output… etc..
I am afraid to comment because it leads to a certain political party getting their feelings hurt. I will say Dallas is not a good fit…
I like this because I genuinely can’t tell which of the two you’re talking about and that makes it fun.
He’s gona sign with Seahawks! It’s the best fit and makes sense for both sides.
U reap what u sow…
Not sure he fits the image of America’s team. Why not Seattle? They are far left, seems to be a good fit.
They’re no longer America’s team
Pretty sure the ratings from last season disagree with you….and the jersey sales…and the…never mind, pointless to argue with you. Stats don’t mean anything. Just go by your feelings.
Wow. I heard the weather outside is unhealthy for sensitive folks.
Kaeps best fit will b backing up Wilson in Seattle.
Yea America’s team was never gonna work… he needs a soft pillow to land on, somewhere his anti-American schtick will play…does ISIS have football….?
I’d take Tebow over that idiot
Tebows employed now.
