Any interest an NFL team expressed in free-agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick<\/a> in the wake of the death of George Floyd and the league\u2019s sudden interest in social justice initiatives was described as \u201cfake\u201d in a new report Monday.<\/p>\n

Pro Football Talk<\/a>, citing a source, reported that \u201cfake\u201d interest was expressed in the former San Francisco 49ers<\/a> quarterback \u201cseemingly out of guilt.\u201d It has reportedly been \u201cmonths\u201d since any team had expressed interest in Kaepernick joining their roster.<\/p>\n

Kaepernick\u2019s attempt to get back into the league came last year when the NFL planned to hold an impromptu workout for the quarterback. An issue over an injury waiver then prompted Kaepernick to abruptly move the location of his workout with only a handful of scouts coming to watch him.<\/p>\n

He didn\u2019t get a tryout from there but the protests and unrest over Floyd\u2019s death in a police-involved incident raised the attention surrounding Kaepernick\u2019s absence from the league.<\/p>\n

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell seemingly gave teams the all-clear to pursue Kaepernick if they wanted to, saying he would \u201cwelcome\u201d a team signing him. Troy Vincent, a league executive, also said the NFL was \u201cworking\u201d to help Kaepernick find a spot on an NFL roster in June.<\/p>\n

President Trump, who has butted heads with the NFL over players kneeling during the national anthem, also said in June he would want to see Kaepernick back in the league.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf he deserves it, he should. If he has the playing ability,” Trump said at the time. \u201cHe started off great and then he didn’t end up very great in terms of as a player. He was terrific in his rookie year, I think he was very good in his second year, and then something happened. So his playing wasn’t up to snuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

Philadelphia Eagles<\/a> coach Doug Pederson was one of the few coaches who expressed a desire to possibly bringing Kaepernick in. However, the Eagles recently brought back Josh McCown to their practice squad, nixing any chance the team signs Kaepernick.<\/p>\n

Kaepernick has not played since the 2016 season. While rust could be an issue, he got a chance to showcase his arm talent in a hasty workout last year. At least one scout reportedly said that he still has \u201celite\u201d arm strength<\/p>\n

In Kaepernick\u2019s final season with the 49ers, he recorded 2,241 passing yards and 16 touchdown passes in 12 games. He only threw four interceptions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
