Column: Kaepernick’s tryout sounds more like a setup
Associated PressFLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — Colin Kaepernick’s NFL tryout sounds more like a setup. “I’ll believe it when I see it,” said Reid, the Carolina Panthers safety and a former teammate of Kaepernick’s who joined in the kneeling protest and paid a hefty price himself. “At this point, it feels like a PR stunt.” The NFL’s offer to arrange the workout came as a total surprise to Kaepernick’s camp and even, supposedly, to one of the league’s most plugged-in owners. “It’s a huge opportunity for him,” said Miami Dolphins center and captain Daniel Kilgore, who played with Kaepernick on the San Francisco 49ers. I’m sure most teams will have people around.” By scheduling such a unique workout under such strange circumstances, the NFL has given everyone a bit of cover to see for themselves what Kaepernick can bring to a team after such a long layoff, with so many seemingly prime years still ahead of him.
