San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick drills trainer in face with errant pass

By The Wrap The Wrap

October 23, 2015 — 10:44am

Colin Kaepernick isn't having his best season, but one incomplete pass now stands out above all the rest.

The San Francisco 49ers quarterback drilled his trainer in the face with a bad throw towards the sideline on Thursday night before losing to NFC West rival Seattle Seahawks. The very high pass was not even close to Kaep's intended receiver.

Fortunately, for those of us who didn't take a pigskin fastball to the dome, the Vines have since come out.

Watch the video.

San Francisco fell to Seattle 20-3 in primetime. The 9ers are now just 2-5, while the defending NFC Champion Seahawks are not much better at just 3-4.

Kaepernick was just 13-of-24 passing for 124 yards during CBS and the NFL Network's shared "Thursday Night Football.
