Seahawks receiver DK Metcalf believes Colin Kaepernick will get another opportunity in the NFL, but he stopped short of campaigning for the former quarterback to take snaps in Seattle.

"I would tell you if they brought him in, like I have no say so and I’m gonna have to, you know, play with him and get along with him," Metcalf said when asked by Shannon Sharpe if he’d be open to having Kaepernick in the locker room, via the Club Shay Shay podcast.

Jeez, he sounds thrilled about the idea of catching passes from a 34-year-old has-been.

Metcalf’s lukewarm comments came after Sharpe insinuated that Kaepernick is currently on a publicity tour, something even the most novice NFL fan has come to realize over the last couple months. Despite having not been in the league for six years, Kaepernick’s been throwing footballs all over the country – always with a camera, microphone, and sob story close by.

"He’s like an act," Sharpe said of Kaepernick. "He’s like Lil Baby or Lil Durk. He’s on tour. He’s in San Francisco. He’s in Seattle. He was in Atlanta. He’s just going all over the place."

Sharpe’s suggestion seems to align with that of Antonio Brown’s, who just last week condemned the camera-happy activist for making a deal with the NFL (a 2019 collusion lawsuit), while seeking the fame associated with the league. "He don’t wanna play, man. He was trash," said Brown.
