San Francsico 49ers QB Colin Kapernick Season Over; Team Puts Him On IR

The San Francisco 49ers may or may not have Colin Kaepernick on the roster next season, but as far as this season goes he is definitely done. Blaine Gabbert has replaced him as the starting quarterback already, and it appears that he is going to have surgery on his non-throwing shoulder to deal with a torn labrum. So the team is pretty much stuck with Blaine Gabbert going forward.

What fans will be interested in knowing next is if Kaepernick will be coming back next season. He hasn't played well over the last couple of seasons, and with the size of his contract it is hard to justify playing him. You certainly do not pay reserve players $11.9 million.



It would not be surprising to hear the 49ers try to shop him around, but with how he has played and how much he gets paid it is hard to see anyone trading for him.
