According to NFL Insider Adam Schefter’s sources, Kaepernick is currently “in the shape of his life” and wants to be ready for teams that need a quarterback. And that, as we all know, applies to the Seahawks.

Whether Colin Kaepernick will actually return to the NFL is still open. But the chances have never been as high in recent years as they are now.
