It seems the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick is inching one step closer to his aim of getting back to the NFL again. After all of his desperate attempts to connect and participate in various public events, the Nevada alumnus managed to bag a workout session with the Las Vegas Raiders. It turns out that the session was successful, opening doors of hopes for the quarterback. Recently, NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo made a bold statement regarding Kaepernick’s chances to grab a deal.

Last Wednesday, he gave a brief stint in the franchise’s training session showcasing his throwing skills and toughness in front of the coaches. During a recent interaction, Garafolo revealed that the quarterback might sign a contract with the Raiders for the upcoming 2022 season. When asked about Kaepernick’s roster status, he said,

“I’ll say yes, and I think it may very well be the Raiders”. Garofalo also mentioned the reason behind the Raiders not offering him a contract yet. “The fact that they didn’t tell him immediately is not necessarily an indication that they have moved on. It’s more about let’s see where this goes. Let’s see our roster. Let’s see where else he winds up working out there. That can be a factor as well, but I’ll say yes, and likely in Las Vegas.” he added to his statements.

Everyone deserves a second chance in their life. Raiders owner Mark Davis affirmed a similar thought when asked about Kaepernick’s workout session with the team. He also urged other teams, in general, to give the signal-caller a second chance to prove himself.

“I still stand by it,” Davis said. “If our coaches and general manager want to bring him in or want him to be the quarterback on this team, I would welcome him with open arms,” Davis added, throwing lights on Kaepernick’s recruitment.

Kaepernick was an exceptional quarterback during his tenure with the San Francisco 49ers from 2011 to 2016. The Nevada alumnus got selected as the second-round pick in the 2011 NFL draft. He started 58 games for the side and led the team towards the Super Bowl XLVII just two years into his NFL career. Will Kaepernick get a contract with the Raiders?
