Despite trending again on Twitter, NFL outcast Colin Kaepernick looks as unlikely as ever to make a comeback

Amid renewed speculation that he may make a comeback to the league which banished him, Colin Kaepernick’s fans had best not hold their breath that they will see the social justice activist back on the gridiron anytime soon.
As soon as Joe Burrow, the Cincinnati star unanimously seen seen as the finest quarterback prospect in several years, went down during Sunday’s game with the Washington Football Team with a torn ACL attention quickly turned to the identity of the man set to replace him.

News editors, as they have done every time a big-name quarterback is consigned to the sidelines by injury, hurried to dust off previously written copy about a former 49er whose talent deserves a roster spot in the NFL but whose profile rules it out.
