Philadelphia Eagles: Should Kaepernick merit consideration?

No, this isn’t a politically motivated post. As the 2017 NFL Draft nears, the Philadelphia Eagles recently made a change at quarterback. Carson Wentz is entrenched as the starter, but it appears the team wasn’t satisfied with Chase Daniel’s performance. The signing of Nick Foles suggests that the Eagles are not totally confident in their backup quarterbacks.

Enter Colin Kaepernick, the quarterback who former Eagles great Ron Jaworski said could become elite. The quarterback was close to winning a Super Bowl, but since Jim Harbough’s departure, things have taken a nosedive.
