October 25, 2017Colin Kaepernick has landed a $1 million deal, but it’s probably not what you think.
Nope. No NFL team wants him. He’s not anyone’s QB. Heck, his dog probably doesn’t even want to play catch with him. So naturally, he’s going to start writing books. He has a lot of wisdom and insight, so this was the obvious move. Duh.
Colin Kaepernick has inked a book deal worth just over $1 million with Random House imprint One World, Page Six has exclusively learned.
One World’s headed by book world superstar Chris Jackson, who also publishes Jay-Zand Ta-Nehisi Coates. He launched One World last year.
He has so much wisdom to impart, you guys. #AllTheWisdom.
Page Six previously reported that Kaepernick had been seen “taking meetings with publishers in the New York offices of WME” to shop the planned book. He’s repped as an athlete by agent Carlos Fleming, and the book deal, we hear, went through Andy McNicol on the Hollywood agency lit department.
Reps for Kaepernick did not comment. One World didn’t get back to us.
If you recall, Kaepernick filed a grievance against the NFL.
NFL’s Joe Lockhart says he expects Colin Kaepernick will be invited to the next meeting between players & owners. Not sure if he’ll attend

But for now, books it is.
I saw someone on Twitter joke about the name of his book. It should totally be “The Art Of The Kneel.”
