Recently Pete Carrol said that the Seahawks may have some
interest in RG3 and Colin Kaepernick because currently the Seahawks only have
Trevone Boykin as backup QB and having an additional backup who can run the
offense like Russell Wilson is a bonus. But yesterday the Hamilton Tiger-Cats
of the Canadian Football League announced that they have acquired the rights to
both RG3 and Kaepernick as well as Johnny Manziel.
Because the players are all still considered NFL free agents
any NFL team has first shot at the players but if for some reason one of them
decides to head to Canada then Hamilton has the rights to sign
them before any other team can sign them. At this point none of the three
players have even mentioned any plans for their future.
As a Hawks fan who lives in the Bay Area... I can't really stand Kaepernick for multiple reasons. However... there's a part of me who actually thinks he'd be a solid backup for Wilson. Damn... never thought I'd ever say that.
ReplyDeleteI have the same feeling because they are really similar in playing style but he seems immature and he would cause the team to become a media circus. I think RG3 would also fit in nicely but he is made of glass and every hit he takes sends him to Injured reserve.
