Colin Kaepernick will hit the field Saturday afternoon for a private training session hosted by the NFL, nearly 3 years after he was last on a team.

hosted by the NFL, nearly three years after he was last on a team.

On Saturday morning, the hashtag"StillWithKap" began trending on Twitter as celebrities and fans wished the free agent good luck. During a locker room interview with reporters on Wednesday, Reid — who was wearing a black T-shirt with the hashtag"IMWITHKAP" on it — said:"Every move that the NFL has made up until this point has been PR for them, has been disingenuous, and I don't think that this is any different."

Kaepernick has not been signed by any team since he opted out of his contract with the 49ers in March 2017 to become a free agent. The athlete made headlines during the 2016 season for kneeling during the National Anthem before games to protest systematic racism.

That there are Americans out there who will not support a fellow citizens right to protest a verifiable issue simply because they do not like the topic or the venue is the biggest disrespect to the flag. That people want to turn it into what it is not is disgusting

Here’s a thought: if Kap wanted transparency he could have gone to Fulton County stadium and done what the league asked. He also could have done a workout later forcTV cameras. Just from what I saw....I would t have signed him. Too much air under deep passes, and he looks slow.

The fake 'justice warrior' must be hard up for money.

Mashallah to Colin

Loser

Who cares

I heard that he didn't even show up for the workout!!!!

That’s not a real photo

This man is so devise he not worth it

Here is the anti cop star walking onto the field

He's a traitor to the 🇺🇸! I hope he breaks a leg! RememberThe CopSocks

Lowlife doesn’t deserve any chance to play

Well darn if he plays he will have to wait another 5 years till he is eligible for the Hall of fame.

Asshole

He gonna be explosive yay!!😃

Looking a little chunky someone get him the filas

Who cares 💩

After this.... done.

Why are so many people hearing about a qb who was benched for poor performance. He will bring separatism to any team that signs him to hold for a kicker

I know nothing about football, and don't care to. I do however understand the great man that Colin Kaepernick is, and I hope he is given the position he deserves on a team! He deserves praise, not hate. If you love football, then love a comeback story, and ignore the number 45!

Wonder if they would do this for Tebow?

Look at that muffin top! 😂

Thought he got a job in the XFL

Can they televise this so we can all laugh about it. When he was exiled he was the worst starter in the league arguably... this should he good.

Sooo what

I support Kap!!

*barf*

It’s a trap

Jay cutler had a chance after he left the bears. 32 NFL owners, lets say 1/2 happy w/ QB.. leaves bout 16.. he odds of ever playing r slim. 16 r tire kickers 8 r somewhat serious 4 r very serious, only 1 or 2 would sign today. Good luck 👍..

Trigger alert!

Whoever gets him is gonna be lucky:)!

Is this part of his lawsuit settlement? Why would they do this? What other unsigned player gets this opportunity?

Did police show up for security?

Guy tries to get a job. A whole bunch of fat couch potatoes get angry at that - you can almost see them spilling their beer and potato chips as they scramble to tweet their outrage at this disturbing development.

He should sign with the xfl2020. I heard they will let him shit on the flag at the 50 yard line before every kick off.

Exactly what was it about their get woke go broke Campaign a few years ago where they lost millions of viewership dollars that they didn’t learn from.

I hope he doesn't get signed.

Do your thing Kaepernick7 praying for you!! Keep the Faith

Good luck Kaepernick , you out of shape has-been.

Has anyone in the history of NFL ever had this same opportunity? 🙄🙄

Posted ad nauseam. No one CARES.

I figure from a business standpoint this might be a solid move. Kaep has a lot of goodwill with non-football fans and will probably some of those people in front of the TV for a few games at least. And maybe sell some merch.

And read D, gets happy feet, and is inaccurate.

Wish I could be there to kneel and turn my back.

MiamiDolphins There ya go ! Why wait ?

Power is being able to extort your way into a multi-million dollar job. Weakness is allowing yourself to be a victim of extortion. nflcommish

Who?

Scum

Go Colin! Love to have you on my team
