As a person who follows the NFL like a religion, Colin Kaepernick is the best free agent quarterback available. He's better than 90% of the backup QBs in the league.
Objectively. There's not even a question about this.
It's not racism that he's not back in the league though. It's controversy. He, like it or not, is a bucket full of news media asking questions unrelated to football, he's cameras watching his every move pre-game, he's an interception away from fan revolt in most cities. The racism is people insisting that he has done some terrible unforgivable thing. How anyone can describe his actions as selfish is just dumb to me.
He'll get a spot. Some team will have a starter injured and need the depth. He is better than anyone else not already on a team.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
