Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said Colin Kaepernick will not be joining the franchise as part of its coaching staff, at least for this season.
“I love Colin very much, but he won’t be on the coaching staff, which is planned for this year. And he won’t play on the roster either,” Harbaugh said.

Colin Kaepernick has not played in the NFL since January 2017 and has sought his return to the league, but without much success; this possibility that had arisen to be part of the Los Angeles Chargers meant a reunion with Jim Harbaugh, who had been his coach in his best years with the San Francisco 49ers.
