3. If Blaine Gabbert has a QB job (he does), there's no absolutely no football reason why Kap shouldn't

Not just Gabbert, of course. RGIII also. There's a whole list of such people one could name.

Whether or not it is overt collusion (it might be "only" group-think), it is a non-football decision.

I think there's a decent argument to be made that if he's your starting QB, you should be looking for a better starting QB. But many if not most teams would upgrade their back-up QB spot by signing him.
