There’s growing speculation that former 49ers’ quarterback Colin Kaepernick will land in the NFL ahead of the 2020 season and he seems to be growing support from within the league.
Atlanta Falcons star QB Matt Ryan believes the dual-threat quarterback “should have every opportunity” to be back in the NFL, per Falcons reporter William McFadden.
“I think he should have every opportunity,” Ryan said, via Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com. “He created awareness for a situation that — it’s taking some time — people are becoming more active in terms of their response to it. I think from that standpoint his protest is being heard . . . I think he should have every opportunity to have a job and have a spot in this league.”
Kaepernick has expressed interest in returning to the NFL since he opted out of his contract in 2017 with the 49ers.
Kaepernick began kneeling for the national anthem in 2016. He has not played in the league since.
