Spike Lee deletes Instagram post saying Kaepernick signed with Seattle
Did Spike Lee break some news about Colin Kaepernick signing with the Seattle Seahawks, or did he jump the gun?
The filmmaker posted a photo on Instagram Saturday of him with Kaepernick. In his caption, Lee said “big love shoutout” to Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll for signing Kaepernick.
Uhhhhh…. I think Spike Lee just broke some NFL signing news?

Not long after posting the photo, Lee deleted it.
The Seattle Times’ Bob Condotta was moved to weigh in and said that Kaepernick has not signed with the Seahawks.
Despite a report to the contrary, the Seahawks have not signed Colin Kaepernick. He visited Thursday, but nothing has happened since.

Kaepernick had a visit with Seattle during the week that reportedly went well.
