Colin Kaepernick...NFL coach? Jim Harbaugh had conversation with his former QB about coaching role with Chargers

Colin Kaepernick and Jim Harbaugh have worked together in the past, and if it were up to the Los Angeles Chargers head coach, the former NFL quarterback would be back in the league as part of his coaching staff.

Speaking to USA Today's Jarrett Bell, Harbaugh said that after he was hired by the Chargers in January, he spoke to Kaepernick about coming on board in a non-playing role. But in the seven months since that conversation, nothing has materialized.

“Yeah, we talked a little bit about it,” Harbaugh said.
