Colin Kaepernick Cornered Over Cam Newton ... 'We Ain't the Same Person'

Bizarre video of Colin Kaepernick ... who was cornered at an L.A. hotel on Friday and interrogated by some overzealous fans -- who forced the 49ers QB to compare himself to Cam Newton.

Kaep was strollin' through the Ritz-Carlton in shorts and a t-shirt when he was stopped by fans asking for some selfies. One of the fans launched into a quasi-pep talk -- it turned weird.

The fans INSIST Kaep is as great as Cam. Colin's response -- "We ain't the same person."
