Colin Kaepernick continues to alienate fans and media, even days after poor performances on the field.
CBS San Francisco released footage of the frustrated San Francisco 49ers quarterback pushing away a cameraman at the end of the first half of the Niners' game against the Oakland Raiders, a game the Raiders eventually won 24-13.
Some NFL personnel prefer Derek Carr to Colin Kaepernick
The camera operator, Anthony Catchatoorian, was shooting the 49ers as they were coming off the field with the game tied at 10. Catchatoorian shot close footage of several San Francisco players without incident.
Until Kapernick came. The biggest surprise was the Kaepernick already had appeared to pass the camera operator when he stuck out his arm and pushed him away.
During another infamous news conference with the media after the game, the word-stingy Kaepernick briefly explained the situation involving Catchatoorian.
"If I try to put something real close to your face, you're going to try to move away, too," Kaepernick said in the 49ers' postgame news conference.
Except that several of his 49ers teammates did not, blowing a hole in that theory.
That encounter took place just before another infamous encounter caught on video that TMZ Sports posted involving Raiders linebacker Sio Moore waiting just inside the locker room building for Kaepernick so he could get in some trash-talking just before the teams adjourned to their respective locker rooms.
The New York Post reported that Kaepernick has had his worst two quarterback passer ratings in the last two weeks in losses to the Seattle Seahawks and Oakland Raiders (54.4 and 36.7, respectively), and further hurting the 49ers with his "childish and amateurish" behavior off the field.
"Although coach Jim Harbaugh seemingly has one foot out the door and offensive coordinator Greg Roman is under fire, Kaepernick seems to be the biggest reason the Niners are 7-6 and quickly falling out of playoff contention in the NFC," the Post reported.
