Colin Kaepernick last played in the 2016 season, going 1-10 for the 49ers but notching a 90.7 passer rating while throwing for 16 touchdowns and four interceptions. (Tony Avelar/Associated Press)The Redskins’ increasingly makeshift situation at quarterback has done nothing to end questions about why the team has been hesitant to sign Colin Kaepernick. For his part, the noted free agent was reported Sunday to be “ready and willing” to play for Washington. On Tuesday, Coach Jay Gruden said his team had “discussed” the possibility of bringing in Kaepernick for a workout but decided against it. Redskins owner Daniel Snyder has reportedly been in favor of mandating that players stand during the anthem, but Gruden said Tuesday that the team opted to bypass Kaepernick for “strictly football” reasons.
