San Francisco 49ers's Colin Kaepernick has admitted that he is "flattered" by praise he received from former NFL quarterback Ron Jaworski.
Jaworski stated that the 25-year-old could be the "one of the greatest quarterbacks ever", after guiding his team to the Super Bowl last season despite their eventual defeat by Baltimore Ravens.
Kaepernick told The AP: "I'm working. To me, it's a great honour that he said that, [I'm] very flattered by it. But at the same time, I haven't played a full season yet."
The 25-year-old threw 10 touchdowns and ran for five more in 13 games for the 49ers last season.
