The Canadian Football League has a rule in place that allows teams to retain the rights to “international players,” which usually means notable NFL free agents. The Montreal Alouettes hold Colin Kaepernick’s rights in the CFL, and they have reached out to Kaepernick through his agent.
Alouettes general manager and interim head coach Kavis Reed said he reached out to Kaepernick’s agent to let him know the Alouettes hold his rights if he wants to play up there. Reed also said that he has not heard back from Kaepernick’s camp.
“There’s been no conversation about Colin coming here,” Reed told CP on Wednesday.
