Kaepernick Receives Zero Interest from NFL Teams After Mediocre Workout
Former NFL quarterback and infamous National Anthem-kneeler Colin Kaepernick has drawn no interest at all following his issue-plagued workout last week. NFL insiders have reported that, along with the controversy surrounding the workout itself, the main reason for not drawing interest is that while the former QB showed good arm strength, he only showed “average accuracy”.
In the week since Colin Kaepernick worked out for seven NFL teams at Charles R. Drew High School in Riverdale, Georgia, no teams have reached out to work him out, visit with him or sign him, per sources.https://t.co/IECNxlRs50

The workout was also plagued by a number of other issues. While there were originally 25 teams scheduled to attend, after Kaepernick cancelled it and moved it from the Atlanta Falcons facility to a local High School, only 8 team representatives were able to attend. He also did nothing to distance himself from his controversial past, showing up wearing a divisive “Kunta Kinte” shirt and refusing to answer unscripted media questions.
The League and Kaepernick’s camp also disagreed on several other issues such as, whether the media would be allowed, if Kaepernick could use his own film crew and shoot a Nike ad during it, and whether or not to sign an injury/employment waiver.
.@Kaepernick7 wasn’t born a victim. No one is. But, he makes himself one because it’s easier.

It’s easier to blame the mystical oppressive white man for keeping you down than to blame yourself.
But there is no victory in victimhood.
