Kaepernick does take more sacks than most, instead of making low-percentage/interception-likely pressured throws, he holds out. A lot of that is on his offensive linemen, though.

Regardless of whether you like the guy, Chart Party had an excellent special on Colin, and feels quite differently:

Look again at the the PFF (Pro Football Focus) link in my post which the moderators flag banned : https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/fantasy-football-metri... .

Check out the PFF grades in the graphic for the last 2 years of his career: way, way down : https://media.profootballfocus.com/2017/05/Kaep.jpg. Way below average. NFL careers tend to decline after age 25. Kap was looking at 30. He was past his prime and riding the bench. He was not banned from the NFL, he lost a step. It happens.

BTW, your link has the narrator questioning why Goff and Cam Newton have jobs but Kap doesn't. What the what? Seriously. wth?

No such thing as too much drama, just lazy thoughts.

Drama is in the NFL's DNA. It just wasn't the type of "drama" that the owners wanted to be bothered with.

And you forgot to add the poignant response that Colin had to those dumb socks.

Sadly that kind of thing picked up with some crowds in Canada regarding our PM's chosen attire as well.

It seems to really strike some people for some reason.
