Reportedly, EA Sports had approached Kaepernick over the summer to discuss licensing his name and likeness for inclusion in the next Madden video game. The rating also ranks Kaepernick higher than other big names in the league like Derek Carr, Josh Allen, Kyler Murray, Cam Newton, and Baker Mayfield. This makes him the highest-rated free agent quarterback available in the game. As in reality, Kaepernick is listed as a free agent in the video game, ranked with an overall rating of 81. Time will tell if Kaepernick hits the field again in real life, but fans won't have to wait to digitally bring him back in the video game world. After leaving the 49ers in 2016, Kaepernick's final Madden appearance also came that same year with the release of Madden 17.
