Colin Kaepernick with San Francisco 49ers on injured reserve
“I would say the (Seattle) defense was a little bit different than the SEC”, Thompson said, smiling. If the 49ers cut him prior to that and without him passing a physical, that salary would be guaranteed, a source said. Although it’s early, CSN put together their first mock draft and projected San Francisco to select Memphis quarterback Paxton Lynch with the sixth overall pick.
Kaepernick was listed as taking part in full practices Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
Kaepernick already had sought a second opinion Thursday from Dr. Peter Millet at the renowned Steadman Clinic in Vail, Colorado. Millett and the 49ers’ team surgeon, Tim McAdams of Stanford Hospital, have been in contact throughout the process.
Kaepernick injured the shoulder in a Week 4 loss to the Green Bay Packers.
“Right now is not the time to get into the particulars”, said San Francisco 49ers General Manager Baalke, referring to Kaepernick’s future in the National Football League team, according to ESPN. Numerous media, including Matt Barrows, Matt Maiocco, and Fox Sports NFL reporter Mike Garafolo are all reporting Kaepernick had a consultation on Monday, and will have shoulder surgery on Tuesday.
Adding fuel to the speculations regarding the potential departure of Kaepernick from the San Francisco 49ers is the non-committal comments of the team’s executives.
Running back Frank Gore is gone to Indianapolis, wide receiver Michael Crabtree went to Oakland; they were you two most productive offensive players on the team other than Kapernick.
Kindness was not on the lips of many 49ers fans after quarterback Colin Kaepernick went on injured reserve.
Late in the game Sunday, Tomsula made a few careful, cautious decisions that essentially guaranteed that the 49ers would lose, but also guaranteed that the losing margin wouldn’t be unnecessarily exaggerated. With only 7 games remaining in the season, he is done for the rest of the year. He was intercepted 26 times and has an 88.4 passer rating. He has passed for 10,030 yards with 56 touchdowns and 26 interceptions in the regular season. Thompson threw for 225 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the victory. He also did the Oakland game here previous year, so apparently if a Bay Area team is in Seattle, so is Hochuli. Given current QB prices and with the salary cap going up again, that $11.9 million will hardly be a deal breaker.
Moving that contract in a trade could be hard if Kaepernick isn’t willing to renegotiate.
