Colin Kaepernick got the green light Tuesday from his personal physician to fully participate in 49ers training camp, which opens Saturday with quite the compelling quarterback competition.
Kaepernick was limited throughout the offseason program following multiple surgeries since November, on his left shoulder, left knee and right thumb. Dr. Peter Millett, of The Steadman Clinic in Colorado, performed those surgeries and the most recent exam.
The story went on to say entering his sixth season, Kaepernick is vying to reclaim the coveted job that Blaine Gabbert assumed at midseason last year. It's now unlikely the 49ers would place Kaepernick on the physically-unable-to-perform list to open camp, seeing how they asked for Millett's opinion and clearance, a league source said.
