Before Colin Kaepernick, former quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers became fa- mous for kneeling during the National Anthem, he lead his team to two NFC championships and the Super Bowl in 2012.

However, right now he isn’t on anyone’s NFL roster and led a grievance case on October 15, 2017 against the NFL, accusing teams of improperly colluding to keep him out of the league. His protest against police brutality has been a lightening rod of controversy, drawing the ire of people who disagree with the manner of his protest.

When he opted out of his contract to make him eligible to play for other teams, the 49ers cut him from the team, making him a man without a team since January 1, 2017.

But in my opinion Kaepernick should be on a NFL team because you look at his stats for the 2016 sea- son he had 2,241 passing yards with 16 TD’s and 4 INT’s with a 59.2 percent completion percentage. In 2015, Kaepernick was the starter through week 8 leading his team to a terrible 2-6 start and was benched until week 6 in the 2016 season. And not to mention he has lead the 49ers to the XLVII super but lost 34-31 in an obsolete thriller and also lead them to 2 NFC Championship games and only winning 1 of the 2 games played.

When you rst look at his stats and achievements you are impressed and you think to yourself and wonder why this amazing QB isn’t a starting QB in the NFL. e reason none of the owners want him on their team is because he kneels during the anthem and NFL fans don’t like to see that and they don’t buy tickets to the games or they turn the T.V to the other channel and not support that team. us, the NFL team he is on won’t make the money they need from ticket sales, jersey sales, and TV broadcasting.
