Colin Kaepernick may be back in the NFL with New England Patriots or Carolina Panthers, says lawyer
Lawyer Mark Geragos, representing the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, is confident that his client will be given a way back into the NFL.
The lawyer representing controversial NFL star Colin Kaepernick, 31, believes his client has a good chance of getting back into the football league as the New England Patriots and the Carolina Panthers could be interested in hiring him.
The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback reached a settlement with the NFL on Friday over a lawsuit he had filed against the 32 franchise owners in the league. The 31-year-old, who became a free agent almost two years ago, accused the owners in his lawsuit of colluding to keep him out of the league, Newsweek reports.
In 2016, the former Wisconsin student faced severe backlash after he knelt during the national anthem in a bid to protest police brutality against African Americans and social injustice.
