Aaron Rodgers‘ injury could be the opportunity Colin Kaepernick needs to get back into the NFL.

At least, that’s what the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback’s agent believes. According to NFL reporter Jordan Schultz, he’s reached out to Kaepernick’s agent, and there’s interest in playing in New York.

Of course, the Jets would have to have interest in Kaepernick for it all to work, and that remains to be seen. But if the opportunity presents itself, it looks like the NFL veteran would take it.

“I just spoke with Colin Kaepernick, who tells me his agent has reached out to the #Jets about his desire to make an NFL return,” tweeted Schultz. “Kaepernick remains on the West Coast working out.”
