Colin Kaepernick Escapes The Rush Fires TD Pass To Shaun Draughn

Ryan Mayer

Colin Kaepernick's first game last week against the Bills was an average performance. He completed just 13 of his 29 pass attempts for 187 yards and one touchdown in the team's 45-16 loss to the Bills. He had a couple of vintage Kaepernick scrambles throughout the game, but never really had that signature Kaepernick play.

That changed today against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Late in the first quarter, following a Bucs turnover, Kaepernick dropped back from the 17, avoided the pass rush and then threw a dart into the end zone where running back Shaun Draughn made a great catch along the sideline.

That touchdown gave the Niners the early 14-0 lead.
