HENDERSON, Nev. -- Quarterback Derek Carr on Tuesday endorsed the Raiders giving quarterback Colin Kaepernick a workout at the team facility two weeks ago and said "I think he'd be great" in the locker room, should Las Vegas sign Kaepernick.
Kaepernick, who took a knee to protest police brutality and racial injustice during the pregame playing of the national anthem, has not played in the NFL since 2016, and the Raiders are the only team to have worked him out since then.
"I don't want to speak for everybody in that kind of sense -- I don't want someone mad at me for saying, 'I think it would be great,' -- but I know him and I would get along great," Carr said Tuesday, following the Raiders' first mandatory minicamp practice.
