His first workout in years. Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) Kaepernick's workout with Las Vegas marks just his second known visit with an NFL team since his release from the 49ers. In 2019, the NFL attempted to set up a midseason showcase for Kaepernick in Atlanta, but the QB declined to participate in it. Why?

This offseason, he and also put on a showcase in the middle of . The Wolverines are coached by Jim Harbaugh, who coached Kaepernick in San Francisco.Despite staying in the news cycle over his six years out of the NFL, no team has shown a willingne s to sign Kaepernick. Could this visit with the Raiders finally allow him the chance to break back into the NFL? Here's what to make of Kaepernick's workout McTelvin Agim Jersey with Las Vegas.MORE: What Colin Kaepernick's workout means for his futureThis is a huge step for Kaepernick as he attempts to return to the NFL. Before Wednesday, Kaepernick had not worked out for an NFL team in six years. He had only visited the Seahawks five years ago, but he didn't work out for them.Granted, NFL teams have had acce s to the footage of Kaepernick's workouts in recent years because the quarterback has posted them on social media. That said,seeing tape is a lot different than an in-person workout, so this feels like the closest Kaepernick has been to rejoining the NFL since his extended absence began.Of course, Kaepernick isn't guaranteed to return to the league just because he got a workout. However, Raiders owner Mark Davis has spoken well of Kaepernick in the past, and during the offseason said that he would welcome Kaepernick to the team if coach Josh McDaniels and general manager Dave Ziegler wanted him."I believe in Colin Kaepernick," Davis said in .He deserves every chance in the world to become a quarterback in the National Football League. I still stand by it. If our coaches and general manager want to bring him in or want him to be the quarterback on this team, I would welcome him with open arms.It would seem that Davis' words are more than just lip service. Now, it's just about whether the Raiders will actually sign Kaepernick.MORE: Will the Raiders Jonas Griffith Jersey sign Colin Kaepernick?On paper, the Raiders look like a good fit for Kaepernick. They already have a starting quarterback that they like in Derek Carr, but they don't have a proven backup quarterback on their roster.Kaepernick wasn't always the most accurate quarterback during his playing days he completed just 59.8 percent of his career pa ses but he still threw 72 touchdowns P.J. Locke III Jersey compared to 30 interceptions. He also ran for 2,300 yards and 13 touchdowns during his career, so that mobility would give Las Vegas an a set at quarterback that it doesn't already have.Signing Kaepernick would somewhat mirror what the Raiders did a couple of years ago in adding Marcus Mariota. They would add a player with good mobility to serve as a potential backup and role player who also has the starting experience needed to be a stopgap if Carr has to mi s time.Also, Kaepernick has experience working with Las Vegas' new offensive coordinator Mick Lombardi. He was an a sistant coach for the 49ers from 2013 through 2016 and worked with the offense in 2014 and 2016.So, Kaepernick certainly looks like a good fit for the Raiders. Still, that doesn't mean that they are going to sign him. As comfortable as Davis seems with the idea of signing Kaepernick, his team has had the opportunity to do so for five-plus years. Why wait until now to make the move?Perhaps Jon Gruden's regime wanted nothing to do with Kaepernick, and maybe McDaniels and Ziegler will think differently. Still, nobody should count on the Raiders signing the 34-year-old quarterback.IYER:Raiders QB depth chartRankPlayer1Derek Carr2Jarrett Stidham3Nick Mullens4Chase GarbersCarr tops the Raiders' depth chart at quarterback, and that isn't likely to change any time soon. He has been a solid starter for the team since he was drafted in 2014, and Las Vegas gave him a three-year, $121.5 million contract extension in April.Currently, the Raiders have three quarterbacks on their roster behind Carr. They are Jarrett Stidham, Nick Mullens and Chase Garbers. Stidham, a former fourth-round pick by the Patriots, has the most upside of the bunch and is the most experienced in McDaniels' offensive system. However, he's also far from a proven thing.Meanwhile, Mullens is a journeyman Ronald Darby Jersey with a 5-12 record as a starter and Garbers is an undrafted rookie from what was considered a weak quarterback cla s. Neither would inspire much hope as a backup were Carr to go down during the season.
