Colin Kaepernick is set to enter the NFL world once again this week. The controversial quarterback has been in the headlines for trying to get back into the NFL the previous few weeks.
Kaepernick penned a letter to New York Jets asking them to take him on as a practice squad quarterback after Aaron Rodgers suffered an Achilles injury in Week 1. Reports have come out that the CFL and XFL want to sign Kaepernick to a team in one of their leagues.
Kaepernick has turned down the XFL and CFL offers. Those leagues don’t offer Kaepernick the same salary that an NFL team would for the quarterback to risk injury.
But he’s getting reconnected to the NFL on Tuesday.
Colin Kaepernick returns to the football world (virtually)
Playground Sports is releasing the arcade-style football video game Wild Card Sports on Tuesday. The game will feature many prominent NFL quarterbacks. Per the Playground Sports trailer, Kaepernick will be in the video game.
According to Adam Wells with Bleacher Report, the Wild Card Football release will be the first time Kaepernick has been featured in a video game since he was in Madden 22. The game NFL Players Association officially licenses the video game.
Kaepernick will be reunited with the NFL world, even if it’s just digital–for now. We’ll see if Kaepernick can fight back to being on a physical NFL team this season.

Why do people keep giving this washed up hack a platform?
Give him a one way ticket to Russia
Boycott the game. Don’t want it.
Well if Mel Gibson can come back after his racial slur and Isiah Washington after his gay rant, Colin surely can come back to the NFL!
How unfortunate that this unamerican weasel is still finding his way into the spotlight. He needs to be banned from media and deported from this country
I will be happy to see Kolin get a chance to return to the NFL. He was wrongfully terminated!!!
That’s one game off the Christmas list
Is he going to. Be allowed to kneel ? He started this whole mess ? At least set a soldier in a wheelchair in front of him !
Kerry Collins quarterback and Tumor used to run patterns while Collins was blindfolded
I’d like to see all the quarterbacks do this now
As a Never-Was, he now *aspires* to be a Has-Been. Kappy doesn’t shoulder ANY of the blame for ruining the NFL; that’s on Goodell for how he “led”.
Why are we still talking about this clown???
There is no NFL world on Tuesdays. 😆
No one cares about Kapernick. This reconnecting with the NfL is fake reporting. Unfortunately I can’t get back the 5 minutes it took me to realize this was in my opinion a pos report. The way you misled with the title. You should be writing for CNN.
Want to be an activist then be an activist , want to be a quarterback then be a quarterback. Not an ass
What makes him a controversial quarterback? Because he stands up for what right?
