Detroit Lions Looking to Sign Colin Kaepernick?

Are the Lions going to sign Colin Kaepernick? It looks like he just may get a chance in the league again.

The Lions ownership has transferred from Martha Ford to Sheila Ford Hamp and Hamp recently stated that she is open to bringing Colin in. From what I’ve followed that is the first team owner saying in plain english that they want Colin on their team. We all know he is good enough to be a premium backup and start in spurts even with the time off.

The Detroit Lions may have changed owners on Tuesday, but the expectations from Sheila Ford Hamp — the daughter of former franchise owner Martha Ford — are remaining the same: Show major improvements from the last two seasons.
Hamp made that clear during a conference call announcing the transition of power from mother to daughter, months after both of them said when deciding to bring back general manager Bob Quinn and head coach Matt Patricia that they expected to be playing meaningful football in December.
Hamp said it was a family decision to keep Quinn and Patricia and that her siblings — all of whom are vice chairmen of the franchise — were also consulted. Hamp said Tuesday that for major decisions going forward she will continue to consult the family, including her mother, brother and two sisters, but ultimately the decisions will come down to her.
And she looks at her mother as a role model in how she wants to handle the Lions — having been by her side at league meetings, at games and other functions during the six-and-a-half years Martha Ford was the primary owner of the club.
Hamp said she would be supporting players and coaches kneeling on the field if they so choose. Hamp also said she would be open to the franchise bringing in Kaepernick — although at the moment the Lions have Matthew Stafford signed as the starter and gave Chase Daniel $5 million in guaranteed money to be the backup.
“If our coaches and our general manager all thought it was a good idea to bring [Kaepernick] in,” Hamp said. “I would completely support that.”.
