Colin Kaepernick: NFL invites teams to Colin Kaepernick workout Saturday
- Thread starter Duwop
- Start date
It is, but both things can be true at the same time
He only has small window to make as much money as he can. This is that time and that's what he's trying to do

Reid is an example. He was taking a stand with Kap. Now he's just another guy because he's back in the league. Right now Kap is the face of something. I don't think he wants to go back to being called a bum and shit again.
I honestly think he may prefer the martyr role at this point. The QB role has a lot of potential downside.
Im not knocking him. I think he's a good guy that stood by his principles. But I think he's bullshitting people into thinking he wants to play in the NFL.
Why can't he get paid AND bring awareness to police brutality?so its about the check? not about police repression/brutality ...got it
Again, it's ok for both things to occur simultaneously
Lol dude training extensively daily for multiple years on a football field just to be a martyr?? Smh
Think about what youre saying: hes attempting to keep himself in optimal football shape for the smallest chance in the world that the nfl will give him another shot so he can purposely botch it.
That makes absolutely no fuckin sense.

Here's the timeline I saw. Let me know if it's wrong because it may change how I look at stuff.
Tuesday - NFL announced the workout for Kap to take place Saturday at 3:00
Wednesday - NFL sent him the waiver to review and sign
There were negotiations.
Saturday (the day of the workout)
12:30 (2 1/2 hours before the workout) -Kap's people sent the NFL a new waiver. Three NFL declined. They said partially because the Falcons weren't protected by it.
2:30 (30 minutes before start time) - Kap's team sends a text saying he's not going to do it
Just after 2:30 - Kap's people post on social media he's having a workout 60 miles away.
Doesn't sound like he was really trying to get a job to me.

Did this timeline mention the NFL popped up with this "offer" out the blue and give a 2 hour window to agree?
Negotiations- What are the details?
2 and a half hours before workout- Seems reasonable if we justifying the NFL giving him the same time initially
Nigga been practicing 3yrs straight, he shouldn’t need 2 minutes
There is legal paperwork involved do u ever read any agreements u sign on to?

If you're an elite athlete, you want to play against elite talent! XFL is like sending a Heisman Candidate to play in Highschool on the JV team

The same people arguing against that , would be the first to call the man Dumb after he signed a bogus waiver that screwed him outta all rights and recourse.

He said he's been staying ready. And is that really short notice? He was told Tuesday about a Saturday workout. Do FA usually get called weeks in advance?
He had 2 hours to say yes or no, obviously through course of events he had all week to change his mind after reading. My only point is if the nigga said he been ready, that 2 hr offer is a no problem. But don’t act like he needed more time to prepare for the work out.

He got the paperwork on Wednesday for a Saturday workout. He sent paperwork 2 1/2 hours before the start time.
Like you said, people need time to read these things. 2 1/2 hours in advance isn't acting in good faith to get things done. He doesn't want to play.
Nigga getting picked up to ride the bench, you think these crakers bout to let him start!
call me dumb but I’m bout to lead the XFL in every passing category until I get the call.
The workout itself was never the problem which is why he went thru with his own anyway
Which is the whole point
