Colin Kaepernick tweeted earlier this week that he’s “still ready” to play. He remains “eager” to prove he still can play San Francisco 49ers T-Shirts , too.Rob Maaddi of the Associated Press quoted a source close to Kaepernick as saying, “Colin has always been prepared to compete at the highest level and is in the best shape of his life.”The question is whether Kaepernick ever gets another chance in the NFL.

Obviously I have a running back background San Francisco 49ers Hoodie , so there’s not really any limit to me on the offensive side,” Hurd said, via ESPN.com.Hurd said he’s not going to guess about how the team will deploy him during his rookie season, but defensive coordinators may be doing a lot of it if he’s able to make the most of his chance with the Niners.
