Colin Kaepernick is ready to get on the field again.
科林·卡佩尼克準(zhǔn)備再次上場。

In an Instagram post on Tuesday, rapper J. Cole shared a copy of a letter that Kaepernick, 35, wrote to New York Jets general manager Joe Douglas requesting to join the practice squad. Kaepernick's lawyer confirmed to PEOPLE that the letter was from the quarterback.
周二,說唱歌手J在Instagram上發(fā)帖??茽柗窒砹?5歲的卡佩尼克寫給紐約噴氣機隊總經(jīng)理喬·道格拉斯的一封信的副本,請求加入訓(xùn)練隊。卡佩尼克的律師向《人物》雜志證實,這封信來自四分衛(wèi)。

"I asked Colin @kaepernick7 if I could share this letter with the world. He was reluctant," explained the musician, 38, in the post's caption. "My argument was that I believe the people and all organizations should know the truth about how hard he works and how much he still wants to play. And always has. In the end, he agreed to let me."
這位38歲的音樂家在帖子的標(biāo)題中解釋道:“我問Colin@kaepernick7我是否可以與全世界分享這封信。他很不情愿。”“我的論點是,我相信人們和所有組織都應(yīng)該知道他工作有多努力,他還有多想打球的真相。而且一直都是這樣。最后,他同意讓我上場。”

Kaepernick last played in the NFL as a member of the San Francisco 49ers during the 2016 season. When the national anthem played at the beginning of each game, Kaepernick began taking a knee to protest racial injustice and police brutality.
卡佩尼克上一次作為舊金山49人隊成員參加NFL是在2016賽季。當(dāng)每場比賽開始播放國歌時,卡佩尼克開始跪下抗議種族不公正和警察暴行。

While he received support from some of his fellow athletes in what was referred to as the #TakeAKnee movement, he also received backlash, causing him to opt out of his contract in March 2017.
雖然他在所謂的#TakeAKnee運動中得到了一些運動員同伴的支持,但他也遭到了強烈反對,導(dǎo)致他在2017年3月選擇退出合同。

In his letter dated Sept. 21, Kaepernick expressed his desire to join the Jets organization and "lead the practice squad."
在9月21日的信中,卡佩尼克表達(dá)了加入噴氣機隊組織并“領(lǐng)導(dǎo)訓(xùn)練隊”的愿望
 
"I would do this with the sole mission of getting your defense ready each week," he wrote. "If I were able to fill this role for the team, I believe this allows for multiple things."
他寫道:“我這樣做的唯一任務(wù)是每周為你的辯護(hù)做好準(zhǔn)備。”。“如果我能為團(tuán)隊擔(dān)任這個角色,我相信這可以做很多事情。”

Kaepernick explained that he was reaching out to the organization "in response to the unfortunate loss of Aaron Rodgers."
卡佩尼克解釋說,他正在聯(lián)系該組織,“以回應(yīng)亞倫·羅杰斯的不幸去世。”

Rodgers, 39, tore his left Achilles tendon during the Jets' season opener. While he underwent a successful surgery following the injury, he announced in a post on Instagram that it had taken him out of action for the remainder of the season.
39歲的羅杰斯在噴氣機隊賽季揭幕戰(zhàn)中左腳跟腱撕裂。雖然他在受傷后成功地接受了手術(shù),但他在Instagram上發(fā)帖宣布,這讓他在本賽季余下的時間里無法參加比賽。

"I know the aspirations this season were, and still are, to win a championship, and so that Hall of Fame sized hole will need to be filled as best as possible to keep the team on a Super Bowl track," wrote Kaepernick.
卡佩尼克寫道:“我知道本賽季的愿望是,現(xiàn)在仍然是,贏得總冠軍,因此,名人堂大小的漏洞需要盡可能地填補,以使球隊保持在超級碗的軌道上。”

While he shared that he understands "Zach Wilson is charged with the task" of being the team's starting quarterback, he said he was offering the team a "risk-free contingency plan" by joining the practice squad.
雖然他表示,他理解“扎克·威爾遜肩負(fù)著成為球隊首發(fā)四分衛(wèi)的任務(wù)”,但他表示,加入訓(xùn)練隊是在為球隊提供“無風(fēng)險的應(yīng)急計劃”。

"I am sure of my ability to provide you with an elite QB option if, God forbid, QB1 goes down," wrote Kaepernick. "However, I know that there may naturally be uncertainties from you and possibly from others about my playing abilities. This plan, I believe, allows me to be of great service to the team as a practice squad QB while also giving you a low-commitment chance to assess my capabilities to help in any other capacity you may see fit."
Kaepernick寫道:“如果QB1失敗,我相信我有能力為你提供一個精英QB選項。”。“然而,我知道,你和其他人對我的比賽能力自然會有不確定性。我相信,這個計劃讓我作為訓(xùn)練隊QB為球隊提供了很好的服務(wù),同時也讓你有一個低承諾的機會來評估我的能力,以幫助你發(fā)揮你認(rèn)為合適的任何其他能力。”

Kaepernick ended his letter to Douglas by stating that he has maintained the same training schedule for six years and included a list of individuals in the NFL who would vouch for his "character, work ethic, and ability."
卡佩尼克在給道格拉斯的信的結(jié)尾說,他六年來一直保持著同樣的訓(xùn)練計劃,并列出了一份NFL中為他的“性格、職業(yè)道德和能力”提供擔(dān)保的個人名單。
