Kaepernick wants out of SF, wants to go to NYJ

Kaepernick has apparently been rehabbing away from the team and sought a second opinion.
His guaranteed money is very low, only 10m or so left iirc, but if he's on the roster on April 4th his entire years pay is guaranteed.
Could just be a negotiating stance with Fitzpatrick though.

The Daily News has learned that embattled 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick wants out of San Francisco after a forgettable 2015 that included on-field struggles that resulted in a benching midway through the season and a coaching change after it. The Jets are his preferred destination, according to sources.
The Jets, aware of Kaepernick’s desire to play for them, are intrigued, but still in the early stages of their offseason planning and evaluation, according to sources. They’re also deathly afraid of tampering (see: Darrelle Revis situation, circa 2015).
JETS COULD BE THINKING QB AT NFL DRAFT
General manager Mike Maccagnan and head coach Todd Bowles have expressed their desire to re-sign impending free agent Ryan Fitzpatrick, but nothing is guaranteed. (The Jets and Fitzpatrick’s camp are expected to discuss an extension in the coming weeks).
Although Kaepernick wants to play in New York, he still has five years remaining on a blockbuster $114 million extension signed in 2014 that includes escape hatches for his current employer. The Jets, coming off a 10-win season, would have to trade for Kaepernick or wait until he’s cut.
The 49ers must make a decision to keep, trade or cut Kaepernick before April 1 when his 2016 base salary of $11.9 million becomes guaranteed. San Francisco would save $8.5 million by cutting Kaepernick, who is scheduled to have a $15.9 million cap charge this season.
Could just be a negotiating stance with Fitzpatrick though.

I imagine Kelly will want to get rid of him anyway.

Welcome to the Mass Media.
1. "according to sources"
2. "according to more sources"
3. Nothing is happening "right now"
4. When it doesn't happen, it's because of "tampering"
Basically this is complete horseshite. And people laugh at shite from Bleacher Report.
But that won't stop this being a trending topic on all the sports networks tomorrow.
The power of the media: A newspaper in NYC just invented a story out of thin air with evidence about as thin as a runway model, and now everyone will talk about it.

Why would he want out given what he's due to get if on the roster next season? Kelly is also his last shot at being a starter.
Assuming the story isn't totally made up, further proof that nothing is going on upstairs with the guy.

Cam is what Kaepernick should've been. He just stopped developing as a QB for whatever reason.

I didn't realize he had had enough concussions/head traumas to actually make him think the Jets are a good idea.
