Colin Kaepernick, Like Therese Belivet, to Consider Major Career Change
There comes a time in the lifespan of a job that an employee is offered a new opportunity elsewhere. Reasons for taking (or not taking) the other job are many—not to mention deeply personal—and the decision, once made, has the ability to change the trajectory of life, as well as all the lives in its...
The Browns Have A Ton Of Options At QB, I Wonder How They'll Blow It
The carousel of mediocre-to-competent QB talent is spinning, and I want to get off. And not because it’s too intoxicating. For the Browns, we know this is going to end in tears. Tears and barf....
Rick Reilly Just Will Not Go Away
Since going into something like semi-retirement two years ago, disgraced dentistry enthusiast Rick Reilly has stayed relatively quiet, delighting sports fans everywhere. Not two weeks ago, though, he emerged with a long, bad SI cover story on the Golden State Warriors, and now he’s sent out what wil...
Report: The Broncos Would Go After Colin Kaepernick If They Lose Brock Osweiler
There hasn’t been a defending Super Bowl champion with a quarterback question this glaring since, well, the last time the Broncos won and their QB retired. (Brian Griese did not turn out to be the answer.) But Denver enters free agency with Brock Osweiler unsigned and reportedly very interested in h...
The Texans And Browns May Or May Not Be Interested In Colin Kaepernick, Depending Who You Believe
The Super Bowl was just three weeks ago but the NFL offseason is already in full swing. Thus far we’ve seen combine dong, Hard Knocks rumors, and the Ryan boys styling out. The draft is in two months, and teams are steady evaluating who can fill spots of need. One of those spots that could be empty:...
Reports: Colin Kaepernick's Agents Request Permission From 49ers To Seek A Trade
The San Francisco 49ers have been quite insistent lately that quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who took them to the Super Bowl in 2013 but lost his job last season amidst anemic play, injuries, and a devolving relationship with the team, is still in their long-term plans. At the NFL Scouting Combine, G...
Colin Kaepernick Might Be Done As A 49er
Even before the 49ers put Colin Kaepernick on the IR this morning, it was clear that he was ancillary to the team’s plans going forward. Coach Jim Tomsula benched him in favor of Blaine Gabbert (Blaine Gabbert!) for their Week 9 win over the Falcons before the extent of his shoulder injury was revea...
Reports: Colin Kaepernick Benched For Blaine Gabbert
Blaine Gabbert will start at quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers against the Atlanta Falcons this weekend, reports Kyle McLorg (and confirmed every other NFL reporter).

The 49ers Really Don't Trust Colin Kaepernick
What’s wrong with the San Francisco 49ers’ offense (besides everything)? It is, as we are learning, incredibly predictable. And that is apparently by design....
Colin Kaepernick Donked A Guy Right In The Face
Somehow, this was a matchup of teams with identical records. But the Seahawks’ 20-3 win over the 49ers felt like so many of the blowouts in the recent one-sided stretch of the Seattle-San Francisco rivalry. The only things that set this one apart were the Niners’ especially unproductive offense, the...
Clay Matthews Kept Picking On Colin Kaepernick
The photo above was taken during yesterday’s Packers-49ers game, right after Packers linebacker Clay Matthews sacked 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick in the third quarter. That’s Matthews stealing Kaepernick’s signature bicep-kiss celebration, which is a pretty good way to troll a quarterback afte...
Colin Kaepernick Unwisely Compares Self To Houston Floods
Colin Kaepernick’s hashtag of choice is #7tormsComing, which is a horrible sentence to write. The 49ers QB decided to use it again today with the Houston flash floods as a news peg, along with a photo of some local devastation. The message wasn’t only insensitive to the alphabet....
49ers Deny Report That They're Trying To Trade Colin Kaepernick
The post-Jim Harbaugh 49ers roster will have notable changes—running back Frank Gore has reportedly agreed to a deal in principle with the Eagles—but one report claims San Francisco's seeing what they can get for quarterback Colin Kaepernick....
How To Tweet If You Are A Famous Athlete
Last week, current Niners QB and future miserable player on a 4-12 team Colin Kaepernick got into a Twitter beef with random Twitter user Stephen Batten (Twitter handle @battman_returns, which is a weak handle when @BattenDownTheSnatches was right there for the taking). It started when Kaep tweeted ...
Random Twitter Dude Criticizes Colin Kaepernick, Gets The Business
Colin Kaepernick, who occasionally bookmarks mean tweets about him, went full blast on some random guy on Twitter today. The 49ers quarterback bragged about his productive day, and the man who didn't carefully read the tweet tried to burn him....
Sio Moore To Colin Kaepernick At Halftime: "Bitch-Ass Motherfucker"

Sio Moore Calls Colin Kaepernick A "Freakin Chump"
After a win as big as the Raiders' crippling of the 49ers' playoff hopes, Oakland LB Sio Moore wasn't ready to stop crowing. He went home, went on Instagram, and continued smack-talking Colin Kaepernick with the irrational confidence that only a young player on a 2-11 team can muster....
Colin Kaepernick's Fumble Was The Most Devastating Play Of Week 9
Week 10 starts in a few hours, so while we can, let's finish cleaning house on Week 9. Down by three with ten seconds remaining, the 49ers were one yard away from the St. Louis end zone and appeared on the verge of victory. But Colin Kaepernick fumbled in what was not only the most detrimental pla...
NFL Fines Colin Kaepernick For Wearing The Wrong Brand Of Headphones
Forced to choose between the pandering of Pinktober and its commitment to its sponsors, the NFL has come down firmly on the side of its corporate overlords. Colin Kaepernick confirmed today that the league fined him $10,000 for wearing the wrong headphones on Sunday....
