“It’s Not True”: NFL Analyst and Hall of Famer Blasted by Colin Kaepernick’s Agent For Calling Raiders Workout as ‘Disaster’
For the 2022 season, the Las Vegas Raiders have toyed with the idea of hiring Colin Kaepernick as Derek Carr’s backup. When Kaepernick worked out with the Raiders last month, a return to the NFL seemed certain. According to reports, the Raiders were pleased with Kaepernick’s arm strength and conditioning and thought the exercise was promising.
The controversial comments made by Hall of Fame defensive lineman Warren Sapp have brought his once-promising media career, which was destroyed by his own wrongdoing, back into the spotlight.
Sapp recently attacked quarterback Colin Kaepernick based on his workout with the Raiders in an apparent attempt to revive his relevance. In a Vlad TV interview, Sapp claimed that he had heard the workout was a complete failure. However, now Colin’s agent has got back at Sapp’s comments on his client.
Colin Kapernick's workout with the #Raiders “one of the worst workouts ever." according to former NFL Network analyst and Hall of Famer Warren Sapp.

Jeff Nalley, agent of Colin Kaepernick, has replied to Warren Sapp’s ‘disaster’ comments
“I guess Warren didn’t talk to the General Manager or the head coach,” Nalley told ProFootballTalk.
“I spoke to the G.M. [Dave Zieger] several times and he said they all thought Kap was in great shape and threw the ball really well and encouraged any team to call him about the workout and he would tell them the same. I’m surprised Warren would say that, because it’s not true and you would think he would want Kap on a team.”
Sapp made no particular or other contributions to back up his claim. It might not have happened the way he said it did because of it. Given that he blew the previous one he had, it’s possible that Sapp is attempting to carve out a new place for himself in the sports media.
If Kaepernick rejoins the club after a five-year absence, it may be a shocking indictment of the NFL for the time he was denied, and it would place Kaepernick at the forefront of the news cycle surrounding the league each week. And if Derek Carr, the Raiders’ starter, is benched or injured and Kaepernick enters the contest, all the sports would come to a complete stop.
