Quarterback Colin Kaepernick is under contract with the San Francisco 49ers, and despite being slated to play under Chip Kelly as sort of a reboot, the electric gunslinger has reportedly requested a trade.

According to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport, if he's given approval to seek a trade, expect the Cleveland Browns and Houston Texans to express interest in him.
#49ers still hope Colin Kaepernick is their QB in '16. If not, #Texans & #Browns (at least) will have some interest. No trade permission yet

That report differs from the Texans' camp, which reportedly has no interest in Kaepernick after a frustrating 2015-16, where he lost his starting gig to Blaine Gabbert.
By the way, Texans have no interest in trading for Colin Kaepernick.

The Browns reportedly don't have any interest in trading for Kaepernick at this time either, according to Cleveland.com.
