A Letter From Colin Kaepernick To Jets Asking To Be Member Of Practice Squad
Colin Kaepernick just did something unexpected again. according to the news, he had just written a letter to the New York Jets to be a part of Practice Squad.
Joe Douglas, the general manager of the Jets received a letter from Kaepernick which was later released by The rapper J. Cole last Thursday.
Cole said he wanted everyone to “know the truth about how hard he works and how much he still wants to play,” and Kaepernick gave him permission to share it.
“I would be honored and extremely grateful for the opportunity to come in and lead the practice squad,” Kaepernick wrote. “I would do this with the sole mission of getting your defense ready every week.”
Kaepernick had put the light on some events that are going to take place in the near future where they will have to face tough quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes, Russell Wilson, and Jalen Hurts, on their upcoming schedule. He also mentioned that this opportunity would allow the organization to assess his football abilities without him being in competition for Zach Wilson’s position.
“In a perfect world for the Jets, Zach Wilson finds his stride and shows that he is able to lead this championship-caliber team that you’ve put together to the Super Bowl,” he wrote. “I believe a confident Zach Wilson has the tools to do this. However, in the event that this is not the case, I would love to offer you a risk-free contingency plan.”
Kaepernick said he’s been training hard for six years, but no NFL team has signed him since he protested during the national anthem. The Jets didn’t agree to his offer and signed Trevor Siemian instead.
