Colin Kaepernick did not part ways with the San Francisco 49ers on good terms. After being drafted in 2011 as the 36th pick overall, the quarterback lasted just about six seasons in the league before being snubbed as a free agent. While he was bidding a tearful adieu to San Fran, he had to sell his valuable abode in the Bay Area, yet he incurred decent profit from it.
