Colin Kaepernick to throw passes at halftime of Michigan spring game

In addition to serving as an honorary captain for Michigan football’s spring game Saturday, Colin Kaepernick will stage a throwing exhibition at halftime. A spokesman for Wolverines football confirmed reports that Kaepernick’s throwing exhibition will be sponsored by a campus group named Wolverines Against Racism. Catching his passes will be a mix of free agent and retired wide receivers.

Michigan football revealed Wednesday that it was making Kaepernick, who spoke with players that day, an honorary captain for Saturday’s intrasquad scrimmage.

Kaepernick tweeted Thursday that he had been “workin'” at Michigan this week, following a throwing session at UCLA last week, and that he appreciated the “warm welcome” he got in Ann Arbor. With the tweet, he shared footage of himself tossing passes at UCLA.

“For The past 5 years I’ve been working out and staying ready in case an opportunity to play presented itself,” he wrote. “I’m really grateful to my trainer, who I’ve been throwing to all this time.”
