Colin Kaepernick's workout changed last minute to allow for media attendance, as the quarterback sought transparency with the NFL. Here's what we've learned.
The press release said Kaepernick sought a"transparent and open process." A tweet from ESPN NFL writer Jeremy Fowler revealed that sources told him that the NFL would provide three wideouts for Kaepernick to workout with for the original event. Kaepernick brought five receivers with him: Bruce Ellington, Brice Butler, Ari Wertz, Jordan Veasy and Eric Reid.
Sources: The NFL is providing three wideouts for the Colin Kaepernick workout but Kaepernick may bring up to five of his own. Former 49ers teammate Bruce Ellington, who played with Kap in 2014-15, is expected to attend., a handful of protesters arrived outside the Falcons' training facility, where the workout was originally scheduled. Supporters also gathered at the facility.
Eli Harold #58, Colin Kaepernick #7 and Eric Reid #35 of the San Francisco 49ers kneel in protest on the sideline, during the anthem, prior to the game against the Buffalo Bills at New Era Field on October 16, 2016 in Orchard Park, New York. Kaepernick has not played in the NFL since 2016.With the last-minute move, reporter Dov Kleiman tweeted that Hue Jackson, who had been scheduled to lead the workout, left Atlanta.
Hue Jackson leaving Atlanta instead of assisting Colin Kaepernick now that the workout is open to the media [against the NFL's wishes] is so Hue Jackson. The worst HC in the history of the NFL doesn't want to upset the league, he thinks he'll get another shot as HC one day.
