Hi, I'm still super excited to watch the first football game of the season tonight...the hall of fame game, but I just made a post about that so I don't have to talk about it. Today I am going to write the teams I think could still sign Colin Kapernick that he would be good for. Here it is:
Baltimore Ravens:
This is the most obvious option and it could happen! These other ones are just rumors and good fits but there has been actual talk about the Ravens signing him. With starting QB Joe Flacco going down with a back injury that will have him coming back right before the regular season and Ryan Mallett the backup sucking and getting hurt, Kap would be a good backup option that the Ravens are strongly considering. He could be a top notch backup for injury prone Joe Flacco. I would love to see this happen because in the event of an injury, Kap would get his chance!
Miami Dolphins:
This could also be one of the only teams that Kap could actually sign with. Starter Ryan Tannehill came down with a knee injury today and we don't know what it is yet but if it is something notable, Kap would be a top choice. Tannehill gets hurt a lot and he isn't even that great of a QB so signing Kap could be good in the event of a bad Tannehill injury or if he is playing badly they could put Kap in the starting lineup. It would be fun to see Kap on the Fins'!
New York Jets:
Now diving into the less-likely options, Kap has always been rumored to possibly go to the QB struggling Jets who are the favorite to have the no. 1 pick in the draft next year. They are likely starting horrible veteran Josh McCown. If the Jets want a chance, they could sign Kap, who would likely beat out the competition and become the starter. If the Jets were to shockingly pull the trigger on a Kap signing, he could actually have a chance at the starting job.
Los Angeles Rams:
The Rams are in a tough spot. Jared Goff could be a project that the Rams are almost ready to give up on after the season if he is bad and in-experienced Sean Mannion could even be thrust into play. This is a scenario that would shock a lot of people. Kap could be used well here. He could start until the Rams are ready for Goff and I think he could be a good placeholder starter until the team wants to find out what to do. One of the worst QB situations in the league could turn to Kap.
Jacksonville Jaguars:
If Kap was signed in the next week or 2 by the Jags, he could come in and take the starting job from Blake Bortles. Inconsistent Blake Bortles has been questioned in Jacksonville and if the team wants a good insurance for Blake Bortles if he gets hurt or stinks it could be Kap. He could be put into action so Bortles could take a break if he stinks. It could be a smart move for the team.
Arizona Cardinals:
The Cards may be the only other option other than these teams. Carson Palmer regressed last season, probably because of his growing age. This is likely his last year. If he is bad the Cards might want some good insurance in Kap. Kap could provide an excellent backup for if Palmer gets hurt or plays poorly. This likely wouldn't happen but its an option.
Thanks for reading, Kap's no. 1 option is likely the Dolphins out of these teams.
