Colin Kaepernick unlikely to sign with Seahawks, per report

The saga of free agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick does not appear to be ending anytime soon. He visited with the Seattle Seahawks a week ago, but it appears to be growing more likely that he will not sign with the team.

Former NFL coach and executive Pat Kirwan said on Tuesday that he does not believe Kaepernick will sign with the Seahawks. This is notable because Kirwan and Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll go way back. Seahawks writer Bob Condotta had details on their relationship:

Kirwan worked with Seattle coach Pete Carroll for five years with the New York Jets in the 1990s, including serving as the team’s salary cap analyst during Carroll’s one season as head coach there in 1994.
