Quavo is a staple of the Atlanta community so it only makes sense that he takes every opportunity to give back. One of those initiatives is his Huncho Day football game, which started last year. On Sunday, the second annual game was played and had a star-studded cast of NFLers, including Cam Newton, Alvin Kamara, Saquon Barkley, and Josh Norman. One of the biggest names there though was Colin Kaepernick who hasn't been seen on a football field in a long time. 

Kaepernick helped draw a huge crowd the flag football game and he made sure to put on a show as he threw a touchdown pass to Barkley. Kap even made sure he connected with Quavo himself on a two-point conversion. The fans were definitely in for a big treat with that play.

The former 49ers star hasn't been in the NFL since the 2016 season when he was essentially blackballed after refusing to stand for the National Anthem. Kap recently settled his lawsuit against the NFL where it is rumored that he made upwards of $10 million. Since then though, Kaepernick hasn't confirmed whether or not he will try to make a return to the NFL.

Below is a video of the crowd that followed both Kaepernick and Ed Reid onto the field yesterday.
