He's a scumbag and probably can't play anymore. He looks slow to me. He should stay out, enjoy his life, and demonstrate like a regular citizen if he doesn't like the flag, police, and US government policies. No place for what he did in a workplace or private setting. He's passe as an icon. Just look at his afro.

"Kunta Kinte is the main character in Alex Haley’s 1976 novel “Roots: The Saga of an American Family,” which became the basis for the 1977 ABC series “Roots.”

The iconic Kunta Kinte character was kidnapped from Africa and forced into slavery in the American South. He attempted and failed to escape four times, and was whipped in a famous scene for refusing to adopt the new name, “Toby,” imposed on him by his owner. The character, although fictional, has remained a theme in pop culture and was most notably championed by Kendrick Lamar in his song “King Kunta.”

Colin Kaepernick Sent A Message With His T-Shirt During His NFL Workout

No team has called him after his workout :laugh:. Maybe it was his tee or being difficult in choosing a workout facility. It's a Mexican standoff where both sides walk away backwards with guns drawn.

"In the aftermath of Colin Kaepernick’s Saturday workout, some in league circles have suggested that nothing will change. For now, nothing has changed.

Per a league source, Kaepernick’s representatives have not heard from any teams with either an invitation to work out privately or an offer to sign a contract.

It’s no surprise, even if the league’s intentions were genuine and pure (Kaepernick’s camp suspected from the outset that they were not), no team had invited Kaepernick to work out privately or had offered him a contract in the 32 months since he became a free agent."

No offers, no workout invitations for Colin Kaepernick after Saturday’s session

Forget the bench, this clown can sit out the season on the comfort of his own couch...at home.
 
He made it clear by wearing the shirt he was not serious about wanting to come back. This was all for show.

Plus I agree with the OP he did not show enough to be worth the hassle.
 
Not sure what the point of all this was.

Maybe to stay relevant for the endorsement dollars?

Reminds me of......

How dare a Gladiator question law enforcement in the Kingdom! He must be banned.

Be that as it may, wouldn't a try-out involve pads, practice, and a few scrimmages?

The US has a long history of people using their fame to make a political point. Most don't get the reaction that he got though. I wonder if he knew what he was getting into.

I don't feel too sorry for him, he can cash in on his fame/infamy in many ways without the NFL.

He probably didn't know how big a deal his actions would become, but I gotta respect him for standing by his values. Don't know or care about his football career,

He used his career position as a symbol of protest. It struck a chord with fans and non-football fans alike. Even the nitpicking of where to hold the tryout and his selection of t-shirt is still news. He's still defiant and rebellious. Thus, potential employers do not trust him. Just the shirt he wore would disqualify him for me even if he could still play. Was an above average player in some circles.

Despite all the hatred for the guy, he was a very good quarterback.

His "values".... hahahaha... obviously you don't keep up with the NFL.
There was a reason most of his fellow team mates hated him, an no owner wanted to touch him.
And virtue signaling doesn't count. It's not real...that is why they call it signaling.
Even though I realize virtue signaling is today's new religion.
