Reports swirled about Colin Kaepernick making a surprising comeback with the Indianapolis Colts amid their quarterback struggles. Despite the buzz, the Colts turned to Philip Rivers, leaving Kaepernick’s wife, Nessa Diab, openly questioning the logic behind the team’s decision.


quote:

“I know I complain a lot about the fact that Colin Kaepernick is not still back in the league, but if the Indianapolis Colts bring in Phillip Rivers, that I could wrap my head around,” the fan ranted in the reel reshared by Nessa on her Instagram. “As much as I can’t stand the guy, that would be interesting because they still got a shot to make a run here.”

Nessa sharing that reel highlights how she’s trying to call out Indy’s decision to sign Rivers instead of giving Kap a chance.


quote:

“YUP! Still with you @kaepernick7 #imwithkap #stillwithkap ???????? I don’t know the person in the video – I’m just thankful he cared to share his thoughts. THANK YOU!” Nessa captioned the IG post.


quote:

Despite the rough patch, Kap never stopped training or hoping. That’s part of why the fan in the Instagram reel voiced such frustration.

“And can somebody take a chance on Colin Kaepernick as a backup quarterback? Like that is just crazy to me that with these awful backup quarterbacks that Colin Kaepernick cannot still get any burn in the NFL. And people will still say that he wasn’t whiteballed. Shame on you. You know he was,” the fan added in the reel shared by Nessa.

She’s not wrong. This is a conspiracy at the highest level. White folks don’t like what is going on in Cleveland so they are getting back at this outspoken King.

Part of being the martyr is actually being the martyr. Tough titty, babe.

Rivers knows the Indy offense because he finished his previous NFL stint with them. He also has conference calls with them every week. Not to mention having stats about equal to Big Ben.

Maybe if he took his personal combine that he coordinated with the NfL serious and didn’t try to change the time, venue & rules at the last minute before ultimately no showing with plenty of teams ready to give him a fair look

Because a massive distraction as a backup qb is what every team wants.

I must be misunderstanding, the majority of successful professional athletes in NFL/NBA are African American.
