Wins and losses are an essential part of competitive sports. On-field victories are some of the best memories an athlete can have. Defeats can prove as valuable lessons for all players. Every top athlete undergoes their fair share of highs and disappointments. However, wins and losses also help evaluate an athlete’s value in the highly competitive world of professional sports. Let us look at the win-to-loss record of QB Colin Kaepernick.

Colin Kaepernick is a former QB for the San Francisco 49ers who played in the NFL till the 2016 season. Ever since the 2016 season, despite his stalled career, Kaepernick has been in the news in one way or the other.

Kaepernick’s career as a QB was relatively short-lived, as he only played six seasons for the 49ers. As a QB, his role was to ensure the offense’s optimum performance. So how do the former 49ers’ stats add up? And do they help him in his quest to get back to the NFL again?

Colin Kaepernick: His wins to losses over his career

Kaepernick has a win-loss record of 28-30, from his rookie season to his final one, during the regular season. During his career, he reached the playoffs twice, in 2012 and 2013. His record in the playoffs was 4-2.

From a results point of view, the best season the QB had was the 2013 regular season, where he led his team to 12 victories and 4 defeats. He was the starting QB in all 16 games the 49ers played as well as in the three playoff games.

Kaepernick’s record can, at best, be called decent for a QB, but it would be difficult to say whether he could rank alongside the elite QBs in the NFL if stacked up against them.

Are Kaepernick’s figures good enough among elite QBs to warrant selection?

Kaepernick definitely has some stats to back his claims as one of the best QBs in the NFL. His passing touchdown to interception rate was fifth-best in the league at 72:30. However, on the other side, he also had the worst sack percentage among QBs, with only Derek Carr ranking below him.

Kaepernick’s overall statistics as a QB are quite average for one of the most recognized QBs in the league. While it is difficult to say how things would have been, had the 49ers’ QB had a longer career?

At the time when he actively played, his figures do not stand out to warrant inclusion as a starter in any team. These figures would have more of an impact now since franchises would look at them if they are considering signing Kaepernick after his long hiatus away from the NFL.
