Colin Kaepernick continues to train hard for an NFL comeback, as confirmed by his girlfriend, Nessa Diab. Despite being away from the league for over eight years, Kaepernick has maintained his dedication to fitness and preparation, working out 'all day, every day.' His career abruptly ended in 2016, following his controversial national anthem protests against racial injustice, a stand that made him a free agent after the season. He later alleged collusion by NFL owners to keep him out of the league.

Efforts for a return have included workout invitations from teams like the Seattle Seahawks and Las Vegas Raiders, but none have resulted in a contract. Former coach Jim Harbaugh even suggested Kaepernick consider a coaching role, noting his potential as a great coach. While the road back to the NFL remains challenging, Kaepernick's unwavering commitment to training signals he is still aiming for a potential return.
