Colin Kaepernick asks for an opportunity with a strong message to the NFL
Colin Kaepernick remains determined to play football and is doing everything in his power to persuade NFL teams to provide him with an opportunity. Since his departure from the 49ers in 2016, the former player has been diligently practicing and believes he possesses the necessary skills to lead any offense.
The 35-year-old quarterback has been asking for an opportunity since 2016. However, it seems like his off-the-field issues and the criticism he made to the league a few years ago are the reason why teams are not interested in him.
As the 2023 NFL season approaches, Kaepernick is still working out to be ready if a team calls him. The quarterback is willing to return, and he thinks that he still has what it takes to play football for a few more years.
