The NFL announced earlier this week that they are inviting former quarterback and company employee, Colin Kaepernick, to hold a private workout for teams.
Kaepernick, formerly of the San Francisco 49ers, took a stand against what he called social injustices in the United States by taking a knee during the national anthem. He hasn’t played in the NFL since 2016.
Perhaps because he was blackballed or perhaps because teams were simply too afraid to sign him, nobody has. Perhaps that will change this weekend.
His workout is slated for Saturday in Atlanta and on Thursday, the NFL named 11 teams that will attend the event, as of now. The Bills are not among them.
Those who are going to be in attendance, per NFL communications, are the Cardinals, Falcons, Browns, Broncos, Lions, Dolphins, Patriots, Giants, Jets, Bucs and Redskins.
That could change, but for now, the Bills will not be represented there.
But Pro Football Talk reports only one team has declined to attend, the Panthers. So there’s still at least some possibility.
