5 Dual-threat NFL QBs who are currently better than Colin Kaepernick

#3 - Russell Wilson, Denver Broncos

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson

Russell Wilson has been selected to the Pro Bowl nine times in his ten seasons in the NFL. Colin Kaepernick never made it to one. Wilson also has an outstanding 113-60-1 overall record as a starting quarterback while winning two Conference Championships and a Super Bowl ring.

Wilson has completed 65 percent of his career passes while throwing more than triple the number of touchdowns as he has interceptions. Wilson also averages 469 rushing yards per season, slightly higher than Kaepernick's 460 average.

#2 - Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen

Josh Allen has emerged as one of the truly elite quarterbacks as he has improved and developed his game over his four seasons in the NFL. He has exceeded 4,400 passing yards and 35 passing touchdowns in each of the last two seasons while completing 65 percent of his passes. Colin Kaepernick's personal bests include 3,369 passing yards and 21 passing touchdowns.

Allen has also established himself as one of the best rushing quarterbacks in the NFL, trailing only Lamar Jackson in rushing yards since he entered the league. Allen averages 581 rushing yards per season, significantly higher than Colin Kaepernick, while also averaging triple the number of rushing touchdowns per season.

#1 - Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes

While Patrick Mahomes is not necessarily known for being a rushing quarterback, he still averages nearly 300 rushing yards per season. He scrambles enough to be considered a dual-threat, but he's so elite with his passing and play-making abilities that he doesn't need to rush as often as most other quarterbacks in this category.

Mahomes has averaged an insane 4,677 passing yards and 38 passing touchdowns per season so far, with an excellent 58-16 career record. He has already won an NFL MVP award, Super Bowl ring, Super Bowl MVP and two Conference Championships. He has been selected to the Pro Bowl every season of his career, while making the All-Pro team in half of them.
