LeSean McCoy comments on Colin Kaepernick: Was he right?

LeSean McCoy recently made headlines commenting on the Colin Kaepernick situation. McCoy’s quote hit on most of my feelings on the matter although many disagree with his take. My thoughts are that while some teams could be blackballing him, I have no reason to believe it’s a league wide conspiracy against Kaepernick.

For the most part, teams are only going to sign Kaepernick to be their starter. Most teams will not tolerate having a backup quarterback who makes more headlines than their starter no matter how unfair that is to Kaepernick. On top of that, he plays a different style of football than most quarterbacks requiring his own team to change their offense when he is in the lineup.
