Should the call come, Colin Kaepernick is ready.  Absent from NFL rosters for more than three years, the 32-year-old league veteran has been waiting, patiently waiting, for any team willing to take a chance on a dual-threat quarterback with quick feet, a strong arm and the emotional fortitude of a leader.  "My desire to play football is still there," he told USA TODAY Sports this past February, some seven years after he led the San Francisco 49ers to a Super Bowl appearance.
