News about Colin Kaepernick

Colin Kaepernick broke his silence on Jim Harbaugh's claim he had extended an invite to the former quarterback this week. Los Angeles Chargers head coach Harbaugh made a stunning revelation in the offseason when he claimed that he had offered his former player a path back to the league. The former quarterback was said to be weighing up an offer to join Harbaugh's Chargers - but as a coach, not a player - according to the former San Francisco 49ers boss. 

TIM HOWARD: My initial reaction when I saw the bodycam footage of Tyreek Hill's detainment by Miami-Dade Police was simple: here we go again. There are certain players who can't get out of their own way. They are always in trouble. And it's always someone else's fault. Let's be clear: this whole incident was brought on by Tyreek. If you break the law, if you do something dumb, have a little bit of respect and humility. If you screw up, if you drive recklessly without your seatbelt on, then - at a bare minimum - approach the officer with courtesy and roll your window down. If you don't do that? If you resist? Problems happen.

Megan Rapinoe wants Colin Kaepernick to carry the United States flag at the next Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028. Rapinoe met Kaepernick at the recent Paris Games and opened up on the encounter on her podcast with her partner, Sue Bird. 'I would love to see Colin be able to represent America in an Olympics. I think that would be a special,' Rapinoe said. 'He's my flag bearer, I think that would be really incredible to have that representation of America be front and center.'

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh, who coached Colin Kaepernick from 2011 through 2014, revealed earlier this week that he had offered his former player a path back to the league.  The former quarterback is currently weighing up an offer to join Harbaugh's Chargers - but as a coach, not a player.  However, even if he accepts the proposal, the 36-year-old won't be in Los Angeles this year.

American soccer legend Megan Rapinoe shared a picture with Colin Kaepernick from her trip to the Paris Olympics. The picture was taken from a Team USA basketball game at Bercy Arena, with Kaepernick's partner, Nessa, and Rapinoe's partner, Sue Bird, also in the frame. Rapinoe's shared snap comes as rumors of a Kaepernick return to the NFL is circulating, after he said in a recent interview that he felt he could still help a team win a championship at 36.

Colin Kaepernick will never play in the NFL again - despite the quarterback's hopes of ending his eight-year exile from the league. That's according to an NFL insider, who told DailyMail.com that the 36-year-old is 'delusional' if he thinks he will be offered a spot on a team ever again. 'That ship has sailed,' they said. Kaepernick reiterated recently that he wants to be under center once more, despite not playing in the NFL since 2016, when his protest during the national anthem sparked huge controversy.

Stephen A. Smith has weighed in on Colin Kaepernick's potential shock return to the NFL at 36.  Kaepernick has long been wanting a return to football as a player but it emerged on Wednesday that the Los Angeles Chargers have offered him the chance to join them as a coach. Kaepernick is said to be considering the opportunity sent his way by Jim Harbaugh - and it is safe to say that ESPN analyst Smith thinks he should take it.

Colin Kaepernick has been offered a sensational return to the NFL - but as a coach, not as a quarterback. LA Chargers boss Jim Harbaugh revealed on Wednesday that he wants the former 49ers star on his staff - and that Kaepernick is weighing up his offer. The 36-year-old has not played in the NFL for eight years, since he took a knee during the national anthem and ignited nationwide controversy.

Now 36 and eight years removed from his last NFL game, free-agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick remains interested in rejoining the league after igniting nationwide controversy by protesting during the national anthem. 'We're still training, still pushing,' the former San Francisco 49ers star told Sky Sports. 'We've just got to get one of these team owners to open up.' When asked why he wants to return, Kaepernick stressed that he's remained ready for a gridiron return.

Colin Kaepernick has put his $3.4million Tribeca condo up for sale as the former quarterback remains out in the football wilderness. The 36-year-old bought the property, which boasts two bedrooms and three bathrooms, in 2017 for $3.2m - so stands to make a $200,000 profit if he can sell for the listed price. Kaepernick made the investment at the time his NFL career became mired in controversy over his protests against racial inequality.

Despite being a globally recognised brand, Ben & Jerry's, a worldwide brand known for many things, has caused political issues for Unilever in recent years as the company's independent board seeks to isolate segments of its customer base. Following the firm's announcement that the product sales in Israeli settlements in the West Bank, Unilever and the brand leapt into a court dispute in 2022.

The board of directors of Ben & Jerry has called for a'permanent and immediate suspension' in Gaza, potentially putting the company's board of directors in jeopardy over a long-running fight over Israel. 'Peace is a pillar value of Ben & Jerry's business,' the company's board chair Anuradha Mittal (left) told the FT, 'the company has consistently stood up for these principles.' Today is no different, as we call for peace and a permanent and immediate ceasefire.' It comes after Unilever attempted to prevent the selling of its popular ice cream in the occupied Palestinian territories in 2021, which Unilever resisted by referring the Israeli arm to a local licensee. Ben & Jerry responded by taking the unusual step of suing its affiliate. Following Hamas' October 7 attacks, Mittal, who also runs the Oakland Institute, has written a series of pro-Palestine articles since Israel declared its war in Gaza.

As he doubled down on his criticism of Nike, former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick took aim at him. At Old Timers' Day in the Bronx last month, the former pitcher, 60, joined Derek Jeter and a few others of the 1998 World Champion New York Yankees, where he complained about everything from 'woke' culture to the club's current challenges. Wells said that Nike has awakened, baseball players are coddled, and everybody should carry a pistol. And, he fired back at the sportswear giant once more this week, branding Kaepernick a "idiot" for taking the knee in protest.

Colin Kaepernick wrote a letter to the New York Jets last week, offering to lead the practice squad in the absence of Aaron Rodgers as he tries to return to the league after a seven-year absence. The rapper J. Cole, who claims that the NFL world needs to know how hard Kaepernick, 35, is trying to get another shot at football, posted it on Instagram. Since the Jets brought Aaron Rodgers at quarterback from the Green Bay Packers, only for him to tear his Achilles just minutes into his first game against the Buffalo Bills, there was a lot of excitement around the team this season.

Megan Rapinoe took a seat and then took a stand for the first time. It was a whim: planned and largely unseen. The USWNT star was in the crowd watching women's basketball at Chicago's Sky on September 2, 2016. Rapinoe stayed put as the arena war for the national anthem. Later, she called it "a reflex reaction" born out of 'outrage' and a "willing to express empathy" with NFL player Colin Kaepernick, who took to the streets in protest against police brutality and racial injustice a day before.

Megan Rapinoe will say goodbye to international football with no regrets about her time on and off the field, according to a news conference on Saturday, highlighting her support of social causes throughout her career. The striker, who gained not only for her two-time world champion but also for her activism for LGBT+ rights, teamwork with NFL player Colin Kaepernick, and most notably confronting former US President Donald Trump. 'I believe the off-field stuff is the most meaningful (to me), and I'm sure of leaving this team and leaving the game,' she said.

For the New York Jets, Tom Brady and Colin Kaepernick will not be on center stage. Following Aaron Rodgers' season-ending Achilles injury, the team is not interested in adding either quarterback as reported by The Athletic's Dianna Russini and CBS Sports' Jossina Anderson. Russini argues that Jets GM Joe Douglas will not be investigating the 46-year-old because he has made it clear that he hasn't been inquiring about him. And as for Kaepernick, Anderson says the team will not be searching for him but rather focus on finding someone familiar with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett's equipment.

Colin Kaepernick is back in the NFL after a spectacular play, and the former 49ers quarterback has reached out to the New York Jets after losing Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers' long-awaited debut with the Jets lasted just four snaps before he pulled his Achilles tendon, effectively ending the 39-year-old's season. Now, according to Jordan Schultz, Kaepernick's handler has tried to contact the Jets, announcing the 35-year-old's desire to return to the league. Since 2016, Kaepernick has been without a team.

During a campaign rally in Erie, Pennsylvania, where a city that contributed to the election in 2016, Donald Trump branded President Joe Biden "a dumb son of a b***h." Trump shrug off the indictments and charges against him instead focusing on the 'Biden crime family.' In the past, Trump has used the word against several rivals, including Mitch McConnell, photographer Chuck Todd, and former NFL player Colin Kaepernick.

Tom Brady or even Colin Kaepernick are unlikely to make an NFL return, regardless of how many injuries strike teams before the new season. Joe Burrow, the Cincinnati Bengals' QB, strained his calf in practice on Thursday and faces weeks out with a calf strain. Brady's second return to the league has sparked as he recovered from a U-turn and spent one more season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

According to Fox News, a Fox News investigation into a course at Cornell's medical school found radical antiracism education. The course, which is not compulsory, converted attendees into 'woke activists.' Fox announced that the program also increased the likelihood of violent uprising, i.e. the burning of firms, in the name of racial justice. Many in attendance even watched clips of Black Lives Matter activists discussing support for the rioting in 2020.

The company caused outrage on social media by announcing that it wanted the US to return'stolen indigenous land', which included giving Mount Rushmore back to the Lakota Sioux tribes. 'It's time we all know that the US exists on robbed Indigenous land and pledge to returning it's,' the company's official account tweeted to its 494,000 followers on July 4th.'

INTERVIEW EXCLUSIVE: The wars within the United States have long raged, but in recent years, they have collided within the once-unknown sports world. Now, there is a lot of resistance. Ever since Colin Kaepernick's knee touched the ground, the sports world has erupted as a breeding ground for political and social issues to be reported and broadcast. Clay Travis, the creator of 'non-woke' sports website Outkick, has no problem with his words.

Colin Kaepernick is staying prepared in the event that any NFL team needs to call on his services six years after he last played in the league. Since being banned from the 49ers in 2016, the outspoken critic has been out of the league since the 2017 season began. Despite not having any workouts scheduled with a squad, Kaepernick told Sports Illustrated that he continues to exercise between five and six days a week.
