The NFL previously said 11 teams were committed to attend: the Arizona Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons, Cleveland Browns, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions, Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, New York Giants, New York Jets, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Washington Redskins. The league expected additional teams to commit.

Sources told ESPN that the Seattle Seahawks and Kaepernick's former team, the San Francisco 49ers, will attend. Sources had also told ESPN that the Dallas Cowboys will go, but owner Jerry Jones said on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas that his team will not have a representative at the workout.

The league reiterated that it will send video of the workout and an interview with Kaepernick to all 32 teams.

Colin Kaepernick workout went to shit. Seems like it always would.

NFL wouldn’t say what receivers he was working out with. Had previously refused to confirm attendees. Also wouldn’t agree to give him a copy of entire of video workout or release it publicly.

Also asked him to sign non standard injury waiver rather than one teams use for in season workouts.

So he staged a private workout at a high school field with his own receivers.

8 teams attended. NFL, after being very coy about it said 25 would have been at their workout. NFL also said it didn’t know what to do with last minute demands.

A few things triggered the move of the Kaepernick workout:

1.) There was a significant problem with the type of waiver #NFL requested. Kaepernick agreed to sign a normal Pro Day injury waiver. NFL asked for a more complex waiver with clauses about non-guarantees of employment.

2.) Kaepernick’s camp requested to tape the workout alongside the #NFL’s crew. They didn’t trust the NFL being the only ones with the tape. Kaepernick wanted it taped and released in its entirety to teams and the public after the workout. The NFL refused to allow them to tape it.

3.) When #NFL refused to allow Kaepernick to tape the workout and control their own copy, Kaepernick asked that media be allowed into the workout to view/record the session. NFL said no. That’s when Kaepernick felt the league refused to be transparent and asked to change venues.

4.) It’s now up to the #NFL teams to decide if they want their reps to relocate to the new venue. They have been invited on-site in Flowery Branch. The new location will also make it far easier for teams to access the local airport, meaning NFL reps can attend and easily fly out.

Unpopular take: There’s fault on both sides. The NFL never should have announced this workout until ALL the details were final and agreed to. And Colin has to accept that he can’t call every shot. Right or wrong, the NFL is - and always will be - bigger than one player.

Jim misses a big point. The NFL knows this and so does Kap. So why did the NFL schedule it anyway?

Michael Lombardi
Kap proved today what we all know that he belongs in the NFL. He also proved he is way different than any other backup. Today we learned nothing more than we knew yesterday.

Well I must be wrong because I am agreeing with this idiot.

Andrew Brandt with rare non Rodgers or Favre story.

Every NFL team has had three years to have a private workout with Kaepernick. And we’re to believe now they’ll have interest because the NFL hastily sets up a workout for all? Please. This never made any sense.

ESPN
The change in venue interrupted schedules for many of the 25 teams that were scheduled to watch Kaepernick at the original site, but Kaepernick still threw in front of representatives from eight teams, according to Nalley -- among them the Philadelphia Eagles, Kansas City Chiefs, New York Jets, Washington Redskins, San Francisco 49ers, Detroit Lions, and Tennessee Titans.

So remember all the shade being thrown at the Cardinals for taking Murray and pairing him up with unknown Kliff Kingsbury?

Working in Year 1. Big test remains for year 2 after people adjust.

Arizona has now moved up to No. 9 in offensive DVOA after being one of the worst offenses in league history last season. Remarkable

The defense is the only thing holding this team back.

Teams trailing by 20+ points at halftime are 0-99 over the last five seasons.
The Vikings are simultaneously trying to make it 1-99 and 0-100.

Minnesota Vikings @Vikings
1-99


Kiss of Death.

Stoopid Broncos!


When Denver blew the chance to add to the lead just before halftime, and then allowed a Minnesota TD to open the second half, the outcome felt inevitable to me.

Exactly how I felt. When the Vikings made it 20-7, I figured they were gonne win.

League research indicated neither the Rams nor the Chargers had an overwhelming reservoir of support in the L.A. region, with fewer local fans than the Patriots, Steelers, Packers, Cowboys and even the Raiders, according to some team and league studies.

If the markets were working, idiots who went along with this plan would be slowly, but certainly, going out of business.

Why'd the Rams leave for St. Louis, again?

Didn't the NFL claim they told him Nike could shoot a commercial. Nike claims they didn't have a crew there and didn't ask. Kaepernick said he wanted an independent crew there and was denied.

All these things can't be true, can they? I need a Venn diagram

Haven't seen that. Sounds more like a taunt.
