‘American Underdog’ Legendary QB Kurt Warner Once Gave an Honest Take on the Colin Kaepernick Situation

It has been a long time since Colin Kaepernick last played a snap in the NFL. Since then, people’s opinions have been split regarding their stance on what happened to the former 49ers quarterback.

Last year, NFL Hall of Famer Kurt Warner also gave his view on the situation surrounding Kaepernick. This came after news broke regarding a potential return to the NFL for former Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow. Tebow was looking to play for the Jacksonville Jaguars under head coach Urban Meyer. He had known Meyer since his college days.

Since Tebow was about to return to the league despite not playing for more than 8 years in the league, Kurt Wagner believed Kaepernick should also be given the chance. Wagner said, “I believe Colin should have had opportunities a long time ago to get another chance to play in the league.”

He added, “Why that hasn’t happened? I don’t know. Everybody can speculate. I don’t know if all this correlates. I don’t if one situation leads into another one. But I believe Colin should have had or should have, another opportunity.”

Colin Kaepernick hasn’t got his opportunity yet. On the other hand, Tim Tebow’s attempted return to the NFL also didn’t materialize. He tried to play as a Tight-End for the Trevor Lawrence-led franchise, but he was soon released by the team.

Colin Kaepernick worked out with the Las Vegas Raiders in the offseason

There was a glimpse of hope for all the fans of Colin Kaepernick in the ongoing offseason. The former 49ers quarterback worked out with the Las Vegas Raiders, as the Raiders were looking for a backup quarterback.

The initial sense was that many were impressed by how the workout went for Kap. However, no clarification was given by any party post-workout. As a result, Kaepernick was once again denied his chance of making a return to the league. He will continue to work on his game, as Kap believes he can make a return to the NFL at some point in time.
