Cashing in on the Victim Mentality, just like all the rest of the Civil Rights Leader class of the New Millennium.

He would easily be the best quarterback on the Bills' roster. Perhaps a few other teams as well.

And they would still be bad, just with a PR nightmare in addition to their current problems. Like Tebow, his talent doesn't outweigh his circus.

I'm pretty sure CK can't "easily" be anything. The guy was below average before a 2 year hiatus and you think he could walk right into a starting job.

The guy is done like a steak at Applebees, and the world is a better place because of that.
One thing that not a lot of people talk about is Collin's style of play. Qb's can play into their late thirties but Collin isn't your average drop back QB. He relied a lot on his legs, and we know that kind of explosion and suddenness drops a lot after age 30. He rarely threw over 200 yrds and that was when his legs were a threat and simplified coverage. IF he's not the same sub 4.5 guy that he was when he went to the superbowl then his overall value is in the tank.

He averaged 177 passing yards during his career and most importantly, got beat out by the real All-American, Blaine Gabbert. Yet, some think he can still play...

The Titans are welcome to him.

Heck yeah. I hear the market is hot for 30 year old former "mobile" quarterbacks with no pocket presence and no ability to read defenses whom haven't worn a uniform since the Obama regime.

Get that man a uniform!

I mean, they already have Blaine Gabbert, so Kap's football acumen would fit right in.

Even if you take the political side of things out of it, Kap's just not very good. He was really good for a couple of years, then he suddenly lost the ability to hit the broad side of a barn from 30 feet away. Frankly, Eric Reid has more to offer a team at this point than Kaepernick does.

Agree on Reid. It just shows how toxic it can be when you mix politics with sports. If Kaep was Aaron Rodgers, sure, he would have a job, but he wasn't very good before the whole kneeling thing and people refuse to admit this. The only current argument is "He is better than <insert backup QB of worst team in league> here". 

You think a HC already on the hot seat wants to deal with that drama? Heck no!
Awesome. I can't even enjoy an episode of Ballers without this craps being thrown at me. God help us.

Eh... I don't watch commercials anyway. I flip between all sorts of shows when watching live and DVR a lot these days...
You ain't selling me nothing I don't want to buy, so why am I gonna listen to any of it.

If we ignore all of them... maybe they'll go away

Ballers is on HBO, so no commercials. It’s a show about football, so it was in the actual show.
Reid just signed, forget exactly with who. Dropping the collusion claim was not part of the arrangement.

Panthers.

Reid is actually a good player though.

Yeah, he is. Kap will remain unsigned because, well, he's not.
CK is trademarking his face and hair. Better get your free use in while you can!

He deserves it, as he sacrificed everything.

The ABA circa 1977 hardest hit.

Wish I could get 60 million for sucking at my job. What a fake social justice bum.
Maybe this clown will finally fade away.
