Jim Harbaugh’s hire for the Los Angeles Chargers could mean big things for a certain former NFL star: Colin Kaepernick. Kaepernick hasn’t played since 2017 and has reportedIy been aiming for an NFL comeback.
Several teams have briefly shown some interest and he has worked out for teams before, but he hasn’t been signed or come close to it. The door seemed to be closing, but Harbaugh’s return could change that. Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio highlighted that Kaepernick’s major milestones came under Harbaugh, who aIso voiced his support for the quarterback during his exile.
Florio also pointed out that Harbaugh considered hiring Kaepernick to work with quarterbacks at Minnesota when he was being considered for the head coaching job.
There’s no telling what Harbaugh plans to do. He’s only just been hired by LA, but the connection to the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback is very reaI and could be his last shot at a return.
