Free-agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who remains unsigned after sitting or kneeling during the national anthem throughout the 2016 season, said he plans to stand if signed by an NFL team – Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports revealed Kaepernick’s intentions on Sunday
The girlfriend disputed the reports though saying Kaepernick have not discussed that with no one.
Kaepernick is the most qualified quarterback remaining on the open market. He threw for 2,241 yards and 16 touchdowns against four interceptions in 2016 as one of the few bright spots in an ugly 49ers season.
While not the superstar some thought he’d be, Kaepernick is a fine pocket passer who keeps defenses honest with his rushing ability.
Numerous players—including Tom Brady, Richard Sherman and Aaron Rogers —have said Kaepernick deserves to be on an NFL roster.
“What happened to Indianapolis. You saying they couldn’t use Kaepernick,” Sherman said in a Players Tribune video after Week 1. “That’s crazy talk. But it’s unfortunate that a man is unemployed right now who’s a pretty good ballplayer. Won his fair share of ballgames, and there are lesser-talented guys employed because they didn’t stand up for a cause.”

Kaepernick has not spoken publicly, and La Canfora’s report was the closest anyone has got to hearing from the 29-year-old.
The Tennessee Titans, who lost quarterback Marcus Mariota to a hamstring injury in Week 4, reportedly did not have interest in Kaepernick when his representatives reached out. Instead, they signed 2012 first-round pick Brandon Weeden.
The team lost a quarterback and there is a fine one available on the free market but will not consider him because he staged a peaceful protest, because he made a great mistake of believing in America and it’s lip service constitution.

OPINION
A fine player is underemployed today because he believed in the constitutional rights to peaceful protests, right to freedom and liberty but unfortunately Collin has been deceived and let down by the constitutional lies of freedom and liberty.
In America of today those rights are only reserved for some but not for all. We are no longer equal under the law.
Our Twitting president now made it clear that all animals are not equal, equality and fundamental human rights are things of the past for certain people.
Why has he not got a job? Because he protested against white injustice towards blacks and white folks don’t like that.
They want to throw shit at you and expect you to take it all the time with no complaints whatsoever because you’re black.
Being black to them means you have no voice and if you try to have a voice you become public enemy number 1. That’s the state of America today.
What our Twitting President want is what he gets.. He asked players taking the knee to be sacked by owners and it’s going to be the new phase of the game.
NBA already ban that and Fox TV will no longer show the national anthem at the start of games in order not show the protest and top it all not to upset the Twitting crying baby of the White House.
