If you've been following football for the past two years, you may have noticed that free agency hasn't gone too well for .After , Kaepernick went unsigned during free agency in both 2017 and 2018. The fact that no one really showed any interest in him over a period of two seasons is a big reason why his collusion case started. Kaepernick hired a lawyer because he strongly believed that he was being blackballed by NFL teams for his decision to protest racial injustice by kneeling during the national anthem. More NFL If Kaepernick is ever going to play football again, it's likely going to have to happen this year, which means the next few weeks could be big for the 31-year-old quarterback. Although there really hasn't been any speculation about Kaepernick signing Miami Marlins Jersey with anyone, his lawyer, Mark Geragos definitely thinks that it's going to happen.In the days after Kaepernick settled his , Geragos predicted that his client would soon be back in the league. "I think you're going to see within the next two weeks that somebody is going to step up, somebody is going to do the right thing," Geragos said during a CNN interview.Well, we can't let Geragos be the only who's making predictions around here, so we've decided to rank the top-10 landing spots for Kaepernick.The ranking below is based on how well Kaepernick would potentially fit into a team's offense. Of course, just because Kaepernick would be a good fit for a team doesn't mean that team will actually sign him, which is why we're doing things slightly different here. After ranking each team, there's also a "chances rank," which signifies the chances that the team will actually sign him. For instance, the rank high on this list for need and fit, but their "chances rank" is dead last out of the 10 teams because they're owned by a guy who . The Redskins "chances ranking" of 10 means they'd be the 10th most likely team out of the 10 listed to sign Kaepernick. With that in mind, let's rank these landing spots.Top-10 potential landing spots for Colin Kaepernick10. Kaepernick's lawyer, Mark Geragos, seems convinced that the Patriots are an option, so I'm listing the Patriots as an option. Shortly after Kaepernick settled his collusion case with the NFL, Geragos predicted that Kaepernick and that the Patriots could potentially be the team to sign him."I will tell you that besides the , it would not surprise me Giancarlo Stanton Jersey if Patriots owner Bob Kraft makes a move," Geragos said.Look, I know the Patriots don't need a quarterback, BUT, is 41 years old, and let's be honest, if any team in the NFL , it's New England. Chances rank: 59. If this list had come out a week ago, the Jags probably would have ranked in one of the top three spots on this list, but now that , we've got them ranked ninth. The one thing about Foles is that he's likely going to cost a lot of money, which isn't good news for a team that doesn't have a lot of cap money to spend. Kaepernick hasn't played in two years, which means he would likely come way cheaper than Foles without being a huge step back in terms of talent. The Jags could always change their mind about Foles and go with Kaepernick, but the odds of that happening as Tom Coughlin is in charge. Chances rank: 88. 7. These two teams are ranked together for one reason: Their starting quarterbacks can't seem to stay healthy. If goes down with an injury in 2019, does anyone in Green Bay actually trust to lead the Packers to the playoffs? If gets injured, which Miami Marlins Custom Jersey seems to always happen, does anyone trust to run the Eagles' offense? The answer to both of those questions is no. If Kaepernick's willing to be a backup, going to Philadelphia or Green Bay would make a lot of sense.Eagles chances rank: 6Packers chances rank: 76. I know what you're thinking and no, I didn't just added . The reason Kaepernick would make sense in Denver is because new Broncos' coach Vic Fangio is well aware of how good of a quarterback he can be when he's at the top of his game. As the defensive coordinator for the 49ers from 2011 to 2014, Fangio had a front row seat when Kaepernick led the team to one Super Bowl and two NFC title games over a two-year period. Fangio also had to coach against Kaepernick every day in practice, so if anyone in the NFL knows what Kaepernick's capable of, it's Fangio. Let's also not forget that John Elway in April 2016. Oh, and Flacco hasn't exactly been healthy -- or good -- over the past few years, so the Broncos better Jose Fernandez Jersey have a good Plan B option at quarterback. The one thing holding up this potential signing is probably the fact that Elway lost all interest in Kaepernick . Chances rank: 95. The Seahawks were Kaepernick in for a workout over the past two years, which means there's some definite interest, and that interest makes sense because the Seahawks have basically spent entire career looking for someone who can serve as an adequate backup. The one small problem with a quarterback like Wilson is that it's hard to find anyone with a similar skill set so that you don't have to change the offense very much in the event of an injury to your starter, and that's where Kaepernick comes in. The Seahawks clearly view him as the ideal backup to Wilson, otherwise they wouldn't have bothered to call him. The other thing that helps Kaepernick is that fact that Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Schneider are both highly familiar with Kaepernick and that's because Seattle has faced him a total of eight times during his career.Chances rank: 34. PanthersGeragos seems convinced that the Panthers are going to sign Kaepernick and there are two main reasons for that: They signed and they have a banged up quarterback in . Newton's shoulder required surgery in January, which would make you think that Kaepernick would be an ideal option for Carolina. However, Ron Rivera did say at the NFL combine that his team won't be adding a quarterback in free agency. "I think right now we're very pleased with where we," Rivera said. "Very satisfied in what we got at the end of the year from both Taylor Heinicke and Kyle Allen ; I think both of those guys showed that ability. If we did do anything, it's probably going to be in the draft. Despite those words from Rivera, I'm still putting the Panthers on this list because Newton's health is still up in the air. There were times last season where the Andre Dawson Jersey Panthers quarterback literally couldn't throw a football 30 yards due to his shoulder injury and if Newton is still having trouble throwing the ball when offseason workouts begin, the Panthers are going to have to think seriously about adding a starting-caliber quarterback.Chances rank: 43. Due to his style of play, takes way more hits than almost any other quarterback in the NFL. Despite playing in far fewer games, Jackson still led all quarterbacks with 147 rushing atte |
