Seahawks general manager John Schneider reportedly reached out to the agents for free agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick last Friday, according to a report Monday night from Michael Silver of the NFL Network.
“Interest in him as potential backup is legit,” Silver wrote.
That report came after Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said in a radio interview Monday morning that the team is “looking at all those guys (backup quarterbacks).” Carroll had been asked specifically about Kaepernick and Robert Griffin III.
“We are looking at everybody, really,” Carroll said to ESPN 710 Seattle (an interview detailed here).
