The Seattle Seahawks made waves a couple of weeks ago when they postponed their workout with Colin Kaepernick. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Seahawks decided to postpone it because Kaepernick wouldn't commit to stop kneeling during the National Anthem.

There were other reports that refuted that being the reason for the postponement, but whatever the reason, he didn't get a workout then.

During Pete Carroll's pre-draft interview, he said the Seahawks were still considering Kaepernick as a backup quarterback candidate.

“We’re still battling on all fronts on all guys,’’ Carroll told the Seattle Times. “Still looking at guys and evaluating. There are still free agents that we are looking at. We have kind of one through the information gathering and we kind of have a pretty good feel for where we are. It’s ongoing. We are not done with that decision at all. We’re still watching him.’’

Carroll also tried to downplay the report from Schefter that said they weren't bringing him in because of the National Anthem issue.

“I think that got blown up like that was a big marker,’’ Carroll said. “I think we have been working at this thing for some time now so I don’t think that really is as telling as it came across. We’re aware of him. He’s a fine football player and there may be a place for him. We’re not sure about where that fits just yet.’’

Even with Carroll's comments, it will be interesting to see if Kaepernick gets a shot with the Seahawks, or if Carroll is just trying to say the right things to the media.
