Numerous teams have said that they plan to send a representative to Colin Kaepernick's workout, but there’s no official list as of yet. How the NFL workout materialized:
From Jay-Z's involvement to Roger Goodell's actions: How Colin Kaepernick's NFL workout materialized and what's nextThe NFL's orchestration of a workout for exiled quarterback Colin Kaepernick in Atlanta on Saturday stemmed from private discussions, a decision made at the highest level of leadership and with the exclusion of many of commissioner Roger Goodell’s usual advisers, multiple people familiar with the event told USA TODAY Sports.
Two people familiar with the situation told USA TODAY Sports the rapper has had many discussions with Goodell about what he saw as a need to try to help Kaepernick get back into the league. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly on the matter. Goodell then sought ways to remedy the situation. He ultimately decided on a course of action without consultation of high-ranking league officials, the NFL Players Association or Kaepernick’s camp. Staffers in the first two offices learned of the workouts once news broke on Twitter on Tuesday afternoon.
Because of the confusion and timing, NFL players such as Eric Reid, Kaepernick’s close friend and former 49ers teammate who continues to kneel during the national anthem, and Players Coalition co-founder Malcolm Jenkins have said that the tryout has the appearance of a publicity stunt.
