Did Bryce Petty retire? Or is he in limbo, hopefully getting on somewhere before Kaepernick?

Retired. Also, not near as good of an NFL quarterback as Kaep. NFL GM signing BP over CK would be absolutely ridiculous.

Bryce should try for the XFL. His name could be "61-58"
Retreat Hell! We just got here! The 2/5

As non-partisan and unbiased as I can be on this one. Kaep is objectively better.

In what offenses?
Backup?
3rd QB?
There are situations where BP would be a better fit
Just my opinion
Thanks

No offense to Bryce, but he didn't take his team to a Super Bowl.

I love BP and wanted so badly for him to succeed. I watched every NFL snap he took and it was pretty clear he wasn't cut out for the league.

Kaep put up far better numbers and as previously mentioned, took his team to a super bowl. It isn't close.

On a related note, Hoyer was recently signed to a fat, guaranteed contract to be a backup. Unbelievable that Kaep isn't on an NFL roster.

Yes. In a league featuring plenty of criminals and woman-beaters, NFL's PR couldn't possibly handle a guy kneeling during the national anthem. GMAB.
