Colin Kaepernick hopes to play football this season as the NFL moves into the third week of the regular season.

"Yes. I've never stopped," Kaepernick told Shaun King of the Fair Punishment Project. "I'm ready right now. Working out daily."

Kaepernick's decision to kneel during the national anthem last season, in protest of police treatment of minorities, sparked a national debate. He had workouts with the Seattle Seahawks and Baltimore Ravens this offseason.
