Colin Kaepernick Has Reportedly Turned Down Offers to Serve as Backup

For context as to what we are about to talk about, Christian Datoc published this article on The Daily Caller this week and saw an unusually low response to the news that Colin Kaepernick has actually turned DOWN at least 1 contract to be a backup QB in the NFL next season.
