Ricky Williams Says Colin Kaepernick Should Move on from NFL Career

Former NFL running back Ricky Williams thinks Colin Kaepernick should look at moving on from the NFL.

Speaking to TMZ Sports about Kaepernick, Williams said the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback should "go do something else" if NFL teams have decided they don't want to give him a chance to play.

"I'd rather be somewhere I'm celebrated rather than where I'm tolerated," Williams said.

Williams had his own unique relationship with the NFL. He retired from the league after the 2003 season at the age of 27 as a member of the Miami Dolphins, returned the following year and was suspended for the entire 2006 season for a fourth violation of the substance-abuse policy.
