In a 2017 quarterback room featuring DeShone Kizer, Cody Kessler and Kevin Hogan, former Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson wanted to give free agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick a chance.
Prior to the 2017 NFL season, Kaepernick opted out of his contract with the San Fransisco 49ers, the team where he played all six of his professional NFL seasons, making him a free agent.
Coach Jackson joined ESPN Cleveland's Tony Rizzo and Aaron Goldhammer on Friday afternoon's Really Big Show, where Kaepernick was brought up in light of the recent comments made by Denver Broncos head coach Vic Fangio, who said racism doesn't exist in the NFL.
