Clark Hunt says he'd have 'no hesitation' in signing Colin Kaepernick
Clark Hunt says he'd have 'no hesitation' in signing Colin Kaepernick
Scott Gleeson
USA TODAY Sports

Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt said he would have “no hesitation” in signing embattled quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who has yet to sign with a team following a season in which he kneeled during national anthems to advocate against police brutality and racial injustice.

Ironically, Chiefs starter Alex Smith had his job taken away by Kaepernick while in San Francisco. Hunt was asked during an NBC Sports radio interview if he’d have an issue signing the former 49ers QB.

“You know, I really wouldn’t,” Hunt said of signing Kaepernick — albeit without an actual roster opening. “Obviously, we have an interesting dynamic in regards to Colin in that we have Alex Smith as our starter. Because of that, I wouldn’t anticipate that Andy (Reid) would come to me with that.

“But, generally, I’m not going to tell our head coach or our GM not to bring in a player if they think that player can bring us some success on the field and make us better. Now there are certain circumstances where guys get in trouble off the field, and that is something as an organization and as a family we care about.

"We’re not going to bring those types of players in. In terms of a player like Colin, I would have no hesitation bringing him into the organization.”

New York Giants owner John Mara previously said that Giants fans had written him letters asking the organization not to sign the free-agent quarterback.

I think we're at [past?] the point where the advocates for Kap have to examine their part in his fortunes.
We're talking about a backup QB position. Leaving aside the original protest completely, what franchise wants the headache of a clipboard holder who comes with an entire media infrastructure bringing daily inquiry and pressure regarding how he's treated and handled?

You think Todd Collins would have enjoyed a decade of paycheck cashing for wearing a Chiefs uniform on the sidelines if he was the top story on Sportscenter at least once a week, every week?

The team doesn't have a place for Krapernick and there's no chance they'll sign him.

I feel like Clark is (smartly) just being PC here. If Clark goes out and trashes him, he risks alienating Chiefs players who support him. Instead he makes banal statements like "I’m not going to tell our head coach or our GM not to bring in a player if they think that player can help us", statements which offend no one and cause no controversy.

Probably the right way to deflect the question.

The owner of the Giants said they received thousands of letters and messages from fans that slammed Kap. He said they would have a fan revolt if he signed him. It will take an extremely needy team for an owner to sign him.

You are ignoring the cheap pile high air made Semen "look" better than he actually is. Those hand of god ducks he threw against KC were a product of that dump stadium. He's only starting due to Lynch being a bust.

I'm a believer that everyone has good and bad in them.

Sometimes people do things without rationalizing and base their decision making on instincts and emotions more than anything.

The media just likes to portray certain types of people with a negative image while disqualifying the positives. That's actually cognitively distorting and is symptomatic of how depressed people think. But it all comes down to money, whatever is negative attracts attention, right? and the more attention that is drawn, the more money is made! All this negative news on athletes just feeds into the capitalistic motive of these media greedy corporations.

And if the Chiefs DID sign him, you and the rest of the goober squad would charge in to high gear, dreaming up all SORTS of bullshit to validate the deal.

Why?

Because you and the crew HAVE NO principles when cHunt and the Fatman step onto the dance floor to do the hustle.

Kaepernick put up 16 and 4 INTs with arguably the worst skill position players in football last year.

Alex Smith put up 15 TDs and 8 INTs with a good set of skill position players.

Kaepernick is certainly one of the best 32 QBs on the planet, and should be starting somewhere, but no owner wants to be the one to take the "risk" to sign him.
