Colin Kaepernick’s tattoos have previously been the source of controversy from some crotchety old folks in the media. That’s a well-publicized fact. But don’t think because of that Kaepernick is going to quell his enthusiasm for body art.

Here’s the work in progress:
And here’s the finished product. Kap’s face looks as if he either is in a lot of pain, is really tired from the whole process or realizes he just made a huge mistake.
At this rate, Kaepernick might become the first NFL quarterback with full tattoo sleeves on both arms. And I can’t wait to watch all the uptight old farts with microphones and keyboards squirm.
