He led the team to Super Bowl 47 in 2012 but lost in a close game to the Baltimore Ravens. He stayed with the 49ers until they released him in March 2017, and no other team has picked\u00a0 him up since.<\/p>\n<p>Kaepernick has stayed in the headlines since losing his NFL job. Over the Independence Day holiday in 2017, Kaepernick took to Twitter to protest celebrating the Fourth of July. In a minute-long video, Kaepernick was seen at the Cape Coast Castle, a former slave fort in Ghana. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/colin-kaepernick-bashes-america-4th-july-joseph-curl\">footage<\/a> also features the \u201cDoor Of No Return\u201d at another slave outpost in Senegal. He questioned why African-Americans would celebrate the day when they were brought to America as slaves.<\/p>\n<p><em>Joseph Curl has covered politics for 35 years, including 12 years as White House correspondent for a national newspaper.
