Students at Cal State East Bay in Hayward caught glimpse of an unusual sight on Tuesday. On the turf of Pioneer Stadium were two NFL exiles, running through a series of drills.
Former 49ers Colin Kaepernick and Eric Reid, both free agents, were spotted working out at the quiet East Bay campus over the past two days. The Mercury News’ Cam Inman dropped in on Tuesday, but was “politely” turned down for an interview.
“We’re just here getting in a workout,” Kaepernick told him.
Although Kaepernick has been living primarily in New York for the past year, Reid lives nearby; he’s a Fremont resident.
