Tuesday evening, the first of what should be a flood of offseason Colin Kaepernick rumors circulated. The New York Daily News reported that Colin Kaepernick wants to get away from the San Francisco 49ers, and his preferred destination is the New York Jets.
It is interesting to consider who may have circulated this rumor. One explanation would be the New York Jets are trying to create some leverage against starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. He is entering free agency coming off the best season of his career. I have no idea how the Jets front office works, so we'll at least mention this as a possibility before moving on to what is more in the wheelhouse of 49ers fans.
