Is the "League" Trying to screw Kap again?


Snake

Recommended Posts

I was looking for coverage of his work out and to see if we sent a rep to find out it wont happen in the Falcons dome but a high school. The reason being the NFL tried to force him to sign a waiver with clauses in it that said he hand to conform to league rules and waive other rights besides injury. Seems to me Jay Z and Goodell tried to silence Kap and he caught them.

They moved the venue because Kaep wanted the media there, its like he still dosent realize no one wants a media circus following around a backup QB. Carolina did not send anyone to see him workout.

"From the outset, Mr. Kaepernick requested a legitimate process and from the outset the NFL league office has not provided one," Meiselas and Nalley said. "Most recently, the NFL has demanded that as a precondition to the workout, Mr. Kaepernick sign an unusual liability waiver that addresses employment-related issues and rejected the standard liability waiver from physical injury proposed by Mr. Kaepernick's representatives.

They probably dont want another Lawsuit, the waivers where probably just saying that this workout does not guarantee a contract, they already paid him once....

He just wants the media there so he can say Do you guys see how well i performed and i still didnt get a contract, sue the NFL again.

Maybe this workout will go well and they can put the next one on pay per view. 

Really dude it's not unusual for Media to be part of a workout and post clips. This is why people end up getting mad when talking about Kap.

Yeah that was definitely a broken promise or a statement about Kyle. 

Seems to me that Tepper pretty blatantly brushed off Reid on he Kap subject and Reid thought that he could actually get the owner to sign his buddy, stupidly.

    • I probably would have become a casual Hornets fan if Cooper ended up there, but the NBA just solidified my apathy for its product. Hornets also got shafted when Lakers got cold feet on the Mark Williams trade. NBA is corrupt and that alien-headed Silver is the kingpin.
    • Most analysts from what I've seen are projecting next year's cap as closer to $298M. We saw a $24M increase this season, $31M increase last season, and $16M prior to that. There's also the inevitable cap casualties... A'Shawn Robinson being cut saves the team $8.5M. Damien Lewis would save $9M. BB3, Jewell, PJ2 all would save $5M each. Tremble and Mike Jackson could save $4M each. It wouldn't surprise me to see the team make a few moves that end up giving them closer to $50M in cap space to start 2026. I'm less worried about next year's cap space due to the upcoming UFAs for the team: TMo, AT, Tuttle, Wonnum, Nijman, Mays, Corbett, BC, Dowdle, Rozeboom, Martin, Rhattigan, Jansen, Scott... the only FAs I'm seeing on Spotrac outside of TMo that are must keeps are ERFAs Coker + Demani (so long as TMo's knee is fine, of course). 2027 on the other hand is going to be the offseason for Bryce's bonus option with Icky being the most significant UFA. PJ2, A'Shawn, Josey, MJackson, Tremble, Dalton, DJ Johnson, Zavala, and Bartholomew are the only other current FAs then. I'm of the opinion that they are all in on next season and if it doesn't go well, it's being blown up and starting from scratch. They're currently estimated to have $130M in free cap space in 2027.
