NFL star Colin Kaepernick is transitioning to become a Muslim, according to people close to the player. One of Kaps homies tells MediaTakeOut.com that Colin's girlfriend, Hot 97 DJ Nessa, introduced him to the teachings of Islam - and he's ready to embrace it fully.

If you think there's MORE to Colin's religious conversion than just spirituality, you may be right. We're told that Colin plans on popping the question to Nessa VERY soon - and is hoping that they can have a traditional Muslim wedding/marriage.
