Two weeks ago, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said if teams are interested in signing Colin Kaepernick, they would have his blessings.
Earlier this week, Mike Silver of NFL Network said multiple teams have shown interest in signing the free agent quarterback. He said interested teams planned to contact Kaepernick.
So far, that hasn’t happened. Despite the encouraging words expressed by former and present NFL players in his favor, not a single team has contacted the social activist.
NBC’s Pro Football Talk thinks it’s possible that teams are waiting for training camps to reopen after the coronavirus hysteria dies down.
Regardless, it’s one thing to express interest to a reporter or to anyone else who, you know, isn’t the person in whom a team has interest. It’s quite another to actually express the interest to the person in whom the interest exists. If/when that ever happens, that will be significant.
