While Colin Kaepernick‘s NFL career remains on hold, the former 49ers quarterback isn’t ready to try his luck in Canada. The Montreal Alouettes hold Kaepernick’s CFL rights and have reached out to him, but a union appears unlikely.
Kaepernick is not interested in playing in the CFL, Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk reports. This confirms what’s long been speculated about a Kap-to-Canada path. The 29-year-old passer recently expressed his desire to return to the NFL, but the polarizing figure remains a free agent.
The only contact the Alouettes have made to Kaepernick’s camp is to inform his agent they hold his CFL rights. It doesn’t look like that’s going to matter much. The team remains interested, but it’s a one-way street.
“There’s been no conversation about Colin coming here,” Montreal GM Kavis Reed said. “It was just to let them know we had his rights and if there was anything they were interested in to get back to us. There’s been no call back from his agent.”
It’s like the old movie ‘Groundhog Day’ with this guy. Same story, different day. Can we just all come to the conclusion that Tebow and Kap won’t be playing in the NFL again. All these ‘articles are essentially click bait these days.
He made his own bed, now he needs to lay in it.
So true. Screw him. Guess he shouldn’t have opted out of his 49er contract, huh? Lmao
Do you follow football? They were going to cut him.
Shrewd move declining to be “international” barely mediocre QB on a good day.
It’s because they only play the Canadian national anthem there.
Probably sit for that too
He’s too good for the CFL.
Signed,
59% completion percentage
Kap is going to go down in history as a hero. Rightly so. Him not even getting a contract offer to play as a backup is a bad look for the NFL. Is he a superstar? Hell no, but he had an above average season last year and has been effective enough to take a defensive team to the Superbowl.
His style of play doesn’t fit 90% of teams and no one wants a media circus from a backup
Look son a idiot.
Kap is a clown. Its never ending with him. He can kneel all he wants at McDonalds
But he has more money than your family will ever make. No need for McDonald’s. Is Jesse Owens a clown? Muhammad Ali, Jim Brown, Kareem? Not sure what makes Kap a clown. 30 years from now we will be celebrating his sacrifice and commitment to making the US a better place.
Is there a rainbow sticker on your Prius?
Guys like Ali and Jesse Owens actually stood up for something real. To compare Kaps protest to them is just an insult to those guys.And no i dont have kaps money. But i also have enough money to live comfortable in my life so i really dont care.
you are ignorant to think all people have the same opportunities in this country.
Where did i ever say that? You sound like a typical race baiter putting words in my mouth. Kaps whole protest was about police brutality but he ignored that black men are murderijg each other far more than police. And white people are killed more by cops than blacks
Your debating common sense with a 10 year old.
Please Canada, take him…. please. He’s ruined the NFL all by himself.
Aint that the truth. And all these guys opinions are going to change once it hits the pocketbook
