The San Francisco 49ers will pursue trade scenarios involving Colin Kaepernick in the offseason.

Kaepernick will see respected specialist Dr. Peter Millett in Vail, Colorado, on Tuesday, and the expectation is that he'll have surgery to repair a fully torn labrum in his non-throwing shoulder that day. 

Kaepernick's $11.9 million in 2016 injury-guaranteed salary becomes fully guaranteed on April 1.

If he's not on the team next year, it'll hit them with $7 million in dead money against the salary cap.
