They are desperately in need of a new quarterback and signing him would not burst the bank. To add to that, Seattle has multiple first-round picks thanks to Russell Wilson's trade to Denver.With Kaepernick still working out in the hope that a chance may come his way, it shows that despite being out of the league for so long, he is taking it seriously.Colin Kaepernick@Kaepernick7Still Working7:09 AM · Mar 11, 2022623036354Still Working https://t.co/ezBzWf6bUIWhether a move materializes or not remains to be seen, but there is definitely a growing sense that the 34-year-old could make a sensational return to the league.It would be great for football to see the former 49ers quarterback on the field again. Should the Seahawks go for him, they will also be getting an experienced quarterback on the cheap.While he may not be the franchise's long-term solution at quarterback, he could buy the organization time to look for some quality young alternatives.
