I think if you say that Kap isn't playing because of his protest, then you should also say that Tebow isn't playing because of his outspoken Christian views.
Fact is, both of them are below average QB's. Kap is a little better than Tebow, and yes he did QB a Superbowl team, but Tebow won in Denver and won playoff games too.
I just think everyone is just missing the point that he is not a great QB. However, we are at the point where I think SOMEONE could pick him up. He is definitely better than Bortles and Henne. But hey, Jags are gunning for that #1 draft pick I guess.
