"Keep working kings" - NFL fans react to news of Colin Kaepernick training with NFL legends Michael Vick and Ochocinco
News of Colin Kaepernick's potential return heated up when he posted a photo of himself posing with NFL legends Michael Vick and Chad Ochocinco (formerly known as Chad Johnson).
This prompted one fan to post in reply:
"Love to see this shit right here, keep working kings!"

With Kaepernick now working out with former NFL legends, some think that the 34-year-old has a real shot at playing in the league next season.
He has certainly left no stone unturned in his bid to return. The 34-year-old has been seen training with a host of players over the last couple of months.
Current Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett and his brother worked out with Kaepernick. He also had a workout at halftime of Michigan's Spring Game thanks to his former coach John Harbaugh.
One fan posted in reply to the picture that they love to see this.

Colin Kaepernick still hoping for NFL chance
The 34-year-old is still working out in the hope that an NFL team comes calling. Several teams could use him as a backup quarterback. Many still think he has a place in the league as a starter.
However, given the amount of time he has spent out of the game, his best bet would be as a backup. Teams such as Carolina and Seattle jump out as the two most logical teams in need of a quarterback.
It remains to be seen whether the 34-year-old will get the NFL shot that he craves, but one thing is for certain: he is not leaving anything to chance.
