Report: 49ers likely to jettison Kaepernick, for football reasons
Posted by Michael David Smith on August 28, 2016, 7:34 PM EDT
Colin Kaepernick has suddenly become the most controversial player in the NFL because of his refusal to stand for the national anthem. But there may be another issue that could cost him his job in San Francisco: He’s not a very good quarterback.
Jay Glazer said on FOX that the 49ers are deeply concerned with Kaepernick’s decline as a player, which started last season when he struggled before getting benched, then got even worse this offseason when he lost significant muscle mass when he couldn’t work out following multiple surgeries.
“Regardless of politics or not, he has a very, very big uphill battle to make this team,” Glazer said. “I’d be shocked if he’s on the 49ers by the time this season ends. It has nothing to do with political views whatsoever. He lost a ton of weight this offseason, had three surgeries, couldn’t work out, lost that double threat, that size-speed ratio. No political views, he just hasn’t been effective. He’s regressing as a player. I’d be shocked if he’s on this roster by the end of this year. He may not be on it in the next two weeks.”
Kaepernick’s contract guarantees him an $11.9 million salary this season, and ordinarily a player with an $11.9 million guaranteed salary isn’t going to get cut. But if the 49ers really think Kaepernick has regressed to the point where they’d be better off with Blaine Gabbert starting and Christian Ponder and Jeff Driskel backing Gabbert up, then they can save a little money by cutting Kaepernick and hoping he signs with another team, as they would be able to reduce that $11.9 million by the amount of Kaepernick’s salary with a new team.
So there are football reasons that the 49ers might want to get rid of Kaepernick. At this point, they probably wish they had done so before this weekend’s non-football controversy.
I don't mind Kaep's anti-american heel gimmick, I can't get over cum stain blaine being an nfl starter tho. I used to say that he was the worst backup in the league.
rofl at that roster of quarterbacks
how do you end up with ponder and fucking jeff driskel thats fucking hilarious
I don't think Kaep is that bad. He went to the superbowl once, and would've again if he didn't pass the ball to that sorry ass receiver michael crabtree. I don't think you can do what he did in his first 2 years unless you got some game. I might be wrong tho.
kape is easily their best option but fuck this guy now
fuck that. sitting through the nation anthem is a great gimmick. I hope the vikes pick him up. As it stands, we have the worst backup in the league in shaun hill
i dont like my black qbs uppity bro
Kaep reminds me of David Duval in golf. Duval actually was poised to be a real competitor of Tiger Woods in the early 2000s. He absolutely fell apart overnight, just like Kaep. Duval was a fucking jerk in his prime. I took great pleasure in reading a couple years back when his home was getting foreclosed on. In a few years I am very hopeful I read the same about Colin.
Obligatory JimmyG, is this true?
Lets point out the more obvious facts.. Harbaugh came in and went to 3 straight NFC title games and a SB against his brother.. Balke and Harbaugh had a pissing contest and Harbaugh "lost".. Although since then its become obvious Harbaugh was the real reason why the team was successful as its been an absolute abortion since then.. How the fuck Balke hasn't been lit on fire and hung by ownership is beyond me. Must be something nasty he has on ownership to have kept his job this far.
Hes only 1/2 black remember that.
Yep. She crushed him.
I have always hated this cocksucker
Shaun hill is now the starter due to Bridgwater's season ending injury. I hope they due pick up the racist unamerican over privileged kaperhick. As a 49er fan I may boycott any support to a team that allows a player to disrespect the national anthem.
you fuckin toddlers
