A Seattle city councilmember is campaigning for Colin Kaepernick to join the Seahawks.ย 

In an openย letter, Kshama Sawant urged Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll and owner Paul Allen to consider signing Kaepernick as a backup QB.ย 

Sawant stressed her belief that the only reason Kaepernick hasn't been picked up as a free agent is because of "the backlash against his courageous leadership...against racism, brutality, and discrimination."
