Tomi Lahren thinks Colin Kaepernick has not been good enough to play in the NFL

Colin Kaepernick has not played in the NFL since the 2016 season with the San Francisco 49ers. While some believe he has been targeted by the league for speaking out against police brutality, others feel Kaepernick is not good enough to be a starting quarterback.

It's clear which side of the fence NBA analyst Tomi Lahren occupies, and she let that be known in a rant about why Kaepernick hasn't played a snap in more than half a decade:

"Colin Kaepernick isn’t playing because Colin Kaepernick isn’t good enough to play! Stop with the victimhood complex that he suddenly started to suck at football because of his BLM oppression. His kneeling was divisive, annoying, and ridiculous BUT that’s not why he ain’t playing..."

Colin Kaepernick had a tryout with the Raiders that led nowhere

Former NFL DL Warren Sapp spoke on VladTV last week about the workout the former 49ers QB had with the Raiders. According to Sapp, the trial was a disaster.

“I heard it was a disaster. I heard one of the worst workouts ever. “I’m wondering how the hell this happened and the tape didn’t get out, right?”

Sapp's teammate LaVar Arrington backed that claim up during an appearance on Fox Sports Radio.

“I know Sapp pretty well… He ain’t lying, “One thing Sapp is not is a ‘liar.’ If you’ve played for an organization, you know people in the organization. There’s certain places that you can get information that in other cases you wouldn’t get that information. Sapp played for the Raiders, and Sapp probably has a relationship with a couple people that are in the organization."

Given the lack of a free-agent deal struck between Kaepernick and Las Vegas, it seems unlikely that the QB will be backing up Derek Carr this coming season.
