ESPN Uses "Street Clothes" Photo Of Kaepernick, Then Decides Otherwise

For some reason, ESPN used a photo of Colin Kaepernick in a backwards hat and regular clothes early Saturday morning while reporting on his "suspicious incident." Usually, a standard photo of him in a uniform would accompany the report. Why the switch?
