Brett Favre calls Kaepernick a hero, just like Pat Tillman

Now I'm sick.

Brett Favre believes Kaepernick will be elevated to ‘hero status’, along the lines of fallen soldier Pat Tillman

Popular former NFL quarterback Brett Favre called Colin Kaepernick a 'hero,' likened the radical former player to Pat Tillman, who died in Afghanistan.

“I can only think of right off the top of my head, Pat Tillman is another guy that did something similar,” Favre told TMZ Sports. “And, we regard him as a hero. So, I’d assume that hero status will be stamped with Kaepernick as well.”

That's really sad. Who's next, Payton Manning?

If Kaepernick gets taken out by friendly fire in a combat zone, then maybe they would be comparable. Till then, it ain't even close.

The way the article was written makes me wonder if Favre's comments were taken to some extent out of context or that Favre isn't quite as informed as he may think he is (or the author wants you to believe).

Of course, it could something as simple as his Copper Fits a bit too snugly....
