From a source with knowledge of the situation re: Kaepernick’s workout with NFL teams Saturday:

Out of the blue, league representatives from the league & their management council reached out to reps for Kaepernick + said they wanted to arrange a workout in front of the 32 teams
Kap’s representatives were told that the NFL needed an answer “in two hours” if Kaepernick planned to go through with the workout. A lot of people had to rearrange their schedules. They thought it conflicted with college football scouting schedules and NFL Sunday game day prep
“It didn’t make a whole lot of sense” the source told me about the process. Kaepernick’s team asked if the workout could be done the following Tuesday or following Saturday. They were told it had to be this Saturday. “It didn’t seem tethered to anything,” the source said.
Kaepernick’s representatives made it clear that if the process was legitimate, and the key decision makers from all 32 teams were there then he would participate in the process. They asked that a personnel list be provided and the NFL they would get it to them on a rolling basis
The expectation is tomorrow & the coming days Kaepernick will get the lists form the NFL. The expectation, per the source, is that there will be reps from every team present. Source says there been no prior communications between Kaepernick & the league before this moment
