Colin Kaepernick, Worth $20 Million Despite Not Playing For 5 Years, Adds Massive Chunk Of Wealth To Net Worth, And It’s Not From Netflix
After not finding a place on any team’s roster since 2016, Colin Kaepernick has always found a way to money. Whether it is for charitable organizations or for his personal means, Colin is good at making things work. From being a published author to bagging a shoe deal with Nike, he has tried out his hands in many things. He once signed a book deal, which made him a fortune.
Kaepernick enjoyed a good career, including a Super Bowl appearance. However, after his national anthem protest in 2016, he has been virtually out of the NFL. Consequently, he turned to other sources of income.

Surprisingly, he is a New York Times Best Seller as well. Kaepernick’s book, ‘I Color Myself Different,’ got published in 2020 and debuted as no. 1 in New York Times. He continues to produce his written work as a form of expression of himself off the field.
Incidentally, Kaepernick signed a book deal with Random House imprint One World worth more than $1 million. It added more value to his $20 million net worth, and more is yet to come for him.
