Locals in NFL: Kaepernick posts another strong game

During the season, we will track how the Wolf Pack alums in the NFL do each week, in addition to any local high school players in the league. Here is a look at their performances in week six.

* QB Colin Kaepernick, 49ers: After hitting rock bottom two weeks ago, Kaepernick had his second strong game, only this time in a win, a 25-20 victory in a rematch of Super Bowl XLVII. Kaepernick went 16-of-27 for 340 yards and two scores. After the game, he celebrated his parents’ 40th anniversary.

* LB Brandon Marshall, Broncos: Bailing out a struggling Peyton Manning once again, Marshall and the Denver defense led the Broncos to a 26-23 OT win over the Browns.
