Baltimore Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome issued a statement Wednesday denying a report that he wants to sign Colin Kaepernick but has faced resistance from team owner Steve Bisciotti.
"We are going through a process, and we have not made a decision. Steve Bisciotti has not told us we cannot sign Colin Kaepernick, nor has he blocked the move. Whoever is making those claims is wrong," Newsome stated.
ESPN's Dianna Russini reported that Newsome and head coach John Harbaugh both support signing Kaepernick, but thus far Bisciotti won't allow it.
Kaepernick has been linked to the Ravens following Joe Flacco's back injury, which is believed to be minor. He played under John Harbaugh's brother, Jim, with the San Francisco 49ers.
