The Facts: The one and only team that has expressed interest in Kaepernick appears unlikely to sign him. Pat Kirwan of SiriusXM NFL Radio said today that he doesn't expect the Seahawks to sign Kaepernick.
Diehards Line:
As PFT's Michael David Smith notes, that’s particularly noteworthy because Kirwan has a long and close relationship with Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, dating to their time together when Carroll was defensive coordinator and then head coach of the Jets from 1990 to 1994. Kirwan didn’t say Carroll was the source of his belief that Kaepernick won’t be a Seahawk, but it seems unlikely that Kirwan would have bad information about the team his old friend coaches. If the Seahawks don't bite, who will? Kaepernick may have to sit and wait and see if some quarterback gets hurt in training camp or the preseason. Otherwise, he'd have a job already.
