Sunday Reads: San Francisco 49ers Quarterback Colin Kaepernick x Hublot Photoshoot

Admit it, you’re jealous of Colin Kaepernick. Men might envy his 6’4 frame, 230 pounds of solid muscle and new contract worth up to $126 million with $61 million guaranteed, but both men and women alike will most certainly turn pea green with envy when they hear about the size of his… closet.
