Next in Line: Should Colin Kaepernick or RGIII Have A Signature Sneaker?

This week, we took a look at the growing population of sneakerheads in the NFL, including a Sneak Peek into the extensive sneaker collection of San Diego Chargers safety Marcus Gilchrist. Previously, we discussed the absence of signature sneakers in the NFL, but with a burgeoning sneaker culture in the league, this may change. With the increased presence of PE cleats and players starting to receive their own sneakers, it is clear that more football athletes will be in line for special projects. One could reasonably assume that a quarterback could possibly be next to receive a signature due to the position's overwhelming popularity. Three QBs have held the “highest paid in the league” moniker in this offseason alone, but it is four young signal callers that have received the most press. Two of those emerging gunslingers are the Washington Redskins’ Robert Griffin III, and Colin Kaepernick of the San Francisco 49ers. Though their respective paths have been a bit different, they both currently enjoy a great deal of popularity. With one being the face of a brand, and the other a known fan of sneakers, Snkrs Day examines the possibility of signature kicks for either. Take a look at the arguments for and against each player, and let us know who you think is Next in Line.
