I don’t really care about the anthem protest. It doesn’t really affect me, so whatever. I still think the league allowed it to go on and gave it publicity in order to create drama and intrigue. Basically, creating good guys and bad guys to get people to keep tuning in. Very pro wrestling style.
That said, is there any other example of a player wanting to get into (or back into) the league and making any demands of the workout? Has any other player done that?
I don’t think I’ve ever heard of this happening before. Maybe it has, but it just wasn’t a story with a less polarizing player? [Reply]

I think TO and Ochocinco started doing it later in their career. [Reply]
ICYMI It’s on the NFL owners now. Colin Kaepernick’s workout exposes the lies about his desire and ability to play for what they’ve always been, and will make owners choose between winning and fear. https://t.co/4CYRztPF0O

I don't know about you guys but I think that would be a significant upgrade for the bears.
Who cares? Sure it’s an upgrade but at what cost? Lmao..
No one denies he’s an upgrade, but it’s become clear he’s a cancer that has a legit chance to spread throughout a team. Not because the movement is wrong, but because these teams need to focus on winning. There will be more coverage on him, than the starting qb of the team, assuming he’s the backup.
In my opinion, he’s better than a back up nfl an, but not good enough to be a starter, therefore, is everything else that comes along with him worth it or not is the simple question, and in my mind it’s not [Reply]

Really dont know but have not read of his signing with anyone. I guess we will see but I believe he refuses any offer that doesn't make him the starter. As someone has said earlier he make more money as a protester. [Reply]
