The quarterback market has spoken, and for Colin Kaepernick, the news isn’t good.
Cam Newton, like Jameis Winston before him, has signed a one-year deal for a fraction of what he was making in his prior contract. The goal here obviously is for each player to show that he still has gas in the tank — Newton with the Patriots, Winston with the Saints — and parlay 2020’s performance into a bigger long-term deal next offseason.
It’s a sign of a depressed quarterback market … and if you happen to be a quarterback still looking for a job, you just lost a few more dollars off your asking price.
