WATCH: Panthers’ safety Eric Reid calls for QB help from friend Colin Kaepernick

Panthers safety Eric Reid thinks the Carolina Panthers could use some help at quarterback, and he happens to know a guy.

After Kyle Allen threw four interceptions in a 29-3 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, Reid told reporters that Colin Kaepernick could make for a good addition to the squad.

“I think we could use Colin’s help,” Reid said. “I think every team could use Colin’s help. I would definitely be excited if he were here.”

Kaepernick worked out in front of NFL executives on Saturday in Atlanta as he continues his push to return to the league. The Panthers did not send a representative to the quarterback’s workout, but Reid attended to support his former 49ers teammate.

“The goal is accomplished,” Reid said about Kaepernick’s workout. “Colin proved that he can play his game. He proved he can throw the ball. Elite, that’s what an NFL executive said.”
