It appears that was his commentary on what he really thought of this farce of a workout. If the NFL had been serious about it, they would have given him some sort of advance notice, but they didn't. And he was not given the option to postpone or reschedule it for a later date.

Beat me to it. Martha(her mom and previous owner) stepped down yesterday, and since she's 94, that makes sense. As a Lions fan, I appreciate what Sheila is doing(I don't know if Kaep still has the talent after missing the past 4 years, but nothing ventured, it's not like the Lions have anybody decent behind Stafford), and she's actually following a lead Martha set a few years ago. Back when Trump antagonized the entire NFL, Martha spoke to the team and said if everyone shows unity during the anthem, anyone who came to her with a cause they supported, she would put both her name and money behind it to help them out.
What's to support? It is almost like these people are admitting there was a blackball agreement to prevent him from playing.
Sounds like a good idea in theory, but then the media would crush that team for “disrespecting” him with such an offer and probably also accuse the NFL of suggesting teams make him lowball offers.
What do Drew Stanton, Josh McCown, Trevor Siemian, Matt Moore, Brandon Allen, Cody Kessler, and Blake Bortles all have in common? They are all unemployed QB's that have started and won more NFL games than Kaepernick has since 2016. And that's leaving off Cam Newton, who certainly would deserve an NFL roster sport before CK. I left off DeShone Kizer, as he went 0-15 one season in CLE.
I can see where this could happen, but it should be said that he hasn't started a game in years, so to just get handed a starting job probably won't happen.
We can see where this takes us and what are Kaep's demands . . . Consideration as a starting QB? Paid as a top starting QB? What percentage of the contract is guaranteed? Can he freely kneel and support causes? I am certainly interested to see where things go from here. I have my doubts if he will be will to take a Winston-like role and deal (short-term, low dollars, no chance of playing without an injury to the primary starter, etc.)
You do know there are also quite a few employed QB’s who have done practically nothing since Kaepernick last played as well right?
Yeah sure Tony, it's potential.
Well Tanney does, his single game QB rating is higher than Kaep ever did. The other two are veteran back ups, another thing Kappy doesn't have on his resume.
And are they demanding the amount of money Kaepernick demands? No one is going to call Andy Reid a racist if he doesn't play Chad Henne. If Kaepernick doesn't get the playing time the SJW believe he should then that coach is done.
Blaine Gabbert doesn't have potential and he's the Bucs backup QB. He's been bad his entire NFL career.tonydead said:
Yet the Niners benched Kaep for Gabbert. Go figure. Clearly Chip Kelly’s and SF didn’t really mix, and playing Gabbert didn’t make much sense. He isn’t a starting worthy QB. But at the time San Fran wanted to see what he could offer.
Yep, but at that point in his career he was only 26 and had been on just one other NFL team. It was reasonable to give him a shot considering he was a top 10 draft pick. However, he’s 30 now and has proven he isn’t a quality NFL player. As a Bucs fan, if Tom Brady were to go down from an injury, I’d rather give Kaepernick a shot over Gabbert.
Can never have enough equipment guys handing out towels & Gatorade. Good for him.

And everyone at espn bows down to the liberal race baiters. That network has become an absolute joke.
And it collectively gets dumber when people retweet or copy paste into some other social media.
"He has the 4th best INT rate in history. He's 4th, Tom Brady is 5th"
Think it was Manny Ramirez. Surprised to see someone so politically correct and tolerant of others thinking it's hilarious to call another human a tranny though. Most of us saw right through her BS immediately. Others used her tweeting and rants and nonsense to justify things. Oops
He really isn't interested in playing football, is he?
Who is "we"?
But wait, I was told his kneeling has nothing to do with the flag or his hatred of America.
