Career
Devon Kaepernick is an American civil rights activist, although the media has not widely reported on her career and professional life. Regarding her brother, Colin Kaepernick, Colin Kaepernick was a talented high school baseball player who received several scholarship offers, but he wanted to play college football instead. The University of Nevada, Reno, was the only school that offered him a football scholarship, which he signed in 2006.
In the 2011 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers traded up to select Kaepernick in the second round as the 36th overall pick. During his rookie season, he served as a backup to starting quarterback Alex Smith.
In 2012, Kaepernick began to see more playing time, scoring his first career touchdown on a 7-yard run. After Smith suffered a concussion, Kaepernick replaced him and played well, leading to a quarterback controversy. Kaepernick retained the starting job and led the 49ers to an 11-4-1 record and a berth in the playoffs.
Kaepernick has shown his dynamic playmaking ability with his strong arm and running skills, complementing the more traditional pocket passing style of Alex Smith. This competition for the starting QB job has created a dilemma for head coach Jim Harbaugh.
