RENTON, Wash. -- San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick is a man of few words on weekly conference calls, but he did have an opinion Tuesday on whether Jim Harbaugh would return as the team's head coach.

"I think he'll be back," Kaepernick said.

When asked what makes him think that, Kaepernick had a two-word answer: "His resume."

Kaepernick and the 49ers play host to the Seattle Seahawks Thanksgiving night, but Kaepernick wouldn't get into the issue from the NFC Championship Game last season on Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman's post-game rant against 49ers receiver Michael Crabtree.

"We're not worried about that," Kaepernick said. "We're worried about trying to win this game. It's a different year, different season. We approach it that way."
