Jets, Browns No Longer Interested In Colin Kaepernick

Mar 27, 2016 1:44 PM

The New York Jets and Cleveland Browns are no longer pursuing Colin Kaepernick.

The Browns signed Robert Griffin III this week.

Kaepernick is left with the Denver Broncos as his only remaining logical suitor.

Kaepernick's $11.9 million salary becomes fully guaranteed on April 1 and the San Francisco 49ers do not plan to cut him before that date.

The Broncos would have to trade for Kaepernick and the 49ers have so far been unwilling to deal him without a substantial return.

Jets Trying To Find Middle Ground With Ryan Fitzpatrick

Mar 18, 2016 7:37 PM

The New York Jets would like to re-sign Ryan Fitzpatrick and are attempting to find a common ground on a contract.

"We like Ryan -- we'd like to have Ryan back -- but at the end of the day, it's free agency," Mike Maccagnan told reporters on a conference call. "You go through it. At some point in time, hopefully, we can find a middle ground we're both happy with."

The Jets have offered Fitzpatrick between $7 million and $8 million per year.

Ryan Fitzpatrick In Contract Stalemate With Broncos, Jets

Mar 13, 2016 5:52 PM

The Denver Broncos have interest in Ryan Fitzpatrick but his price tag has been too high to date.

The Broncos are searching for a replacement for Brock Osweiler and have also traded for Mark Sanchez this offseason.

Fitzpatrick, 33, threw for 3,905 yards with 31 touchdowns and 15 interceptions in 2015, his first season with the New York Jets.

The Jets have been in a stalemate with Fitzpatrick and are nowhere close to an agreement.

Broncos Pursuing Ryan Fitzpatrick As Plan B

Mar 11, 2016 1:14 AM

The Denver Broncos are targeting Colin Kaepernick but they've also reached out to Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Fitzpatrick had an impressive 2015 with the New York Jets, but he remains a free agent.

"I believe that Colin Kaepernick is the target for the Denver Broncos," Silver said on NFL Network. "I believe the 49ers are amendable to trading him. Whether it is a (third-round pick) a (second-round pick) if that's what it takes. I think right now they're doing a dance. But I expect the Denver Broncos to go out and get Colin Kaepernick as their top option."

Broncos, Jets, Browns Express Interest In Trade For Colin Kaepernick

Mar 11, 2016 1:12 AM

The Denver Broncos, New York Jets and Cleveland Browns have all expressed interest to the San Francisco 49ers in trading for Colin Kaepernick.

Nothing is imminent at this point.

The Broncos have a void at quarterback after the free-agent defection of Brock Osweiler to the Houston Texans and the retirement of Peyton Manning.

The Jets are in a stalemate with Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Kaepernick's agents requested permission from the 49ers on Feb. 26 to seek a trade for their client.

Kaepernick is recovering from surgeries to his left shoulder, right thumb and left knee, and on April 1 his $11.9 million base salary for 2016 becomes guaranteed.
