Colin Kaepernick may have a chance to return to the NFL. ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Wednesday reported Kapernick has a workout scheduled with the Las Vegas Raiders. NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport later reported the workout is Wednesday.
Kaepernick hasn’t played in the NFL since 2016, the same year he kneeled during the national anthem to protest racial injustice in the United States. That year he completed 59.2 percent of his throws with 16 touchdowns and four interceptions for the 2-16 49ers. He went 1-10 in his 11 starts.
Workouts have been sparse for Kaepernick since the 49ers released him ahead of the 2017 campaign. This session with the Raiders is the first formal workout he’s had with a team.
