“A Slap In The Face”

With the San Francisco 49ers in the 2016 season, Colin Kaepernick made his NFL debut, although his performance wasn’t great. In eleven starts, the former quarterback and full-time activist recorded one victory against ten losses.

He later declined a team offer of a contract renewal, and he hasn’t played in the league since. Many believed that because of his antics on the field and his bombast off the field, he was being blackballed by the NFL. But those same individuals were ignoring the fact NFL defensive coordinators were learning how to stop him, and his skill set was rapidly diminishing.

First and foremost, Kaepernick was a runner, and his passing accuracy was abysmal. As is typically the case, quarterbacks quickly lose their effectiveness when defenses find them out. The former quarterback’s unemployment was attributed to racism by lefties and the liberal media, despite his decline on the field and his rejection of a contract offer from San Francisco. It seems sense that no organization wanted the player with his unique mix of problems on the sidelines or in the locker room given the baggage he carried with him and his deteriorating abilities.
