Colin Kaepernick Declines To Comment After NFL Teams Weekend Demonstrations

Colin Kaepernick is out of a job in the NFL, but players, coaches and teams across the NFL have continued his “take a knee” protest during the national anthem; others have locked arms in unity in a sign of protest against Donald Trump’s divisive message on Friday night against the “son of a bitch” players who “disrespect our flag.”

Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, ‘Get that son of a bitch off the field right now. Out. He’s fired. He’s fired!

Three football teams, the Pittsburg Stealers, the Tennessee Titans and the Seattle Seahawks all stayed in the tunnel during the anthem as a sign of protest against Donald Trump and his values. When cornered by TMZ for comment on the weekend events, Colin Kaepernick respectfully declined to lend his comment on the stance (or knee) that other players within the league were taking.

Ray Lewis, formerly of the Ravens, stated that the team was just about to offer Kaepernick a position this season, before his girlfriend (Hot97 radio host Nessa) posted a divisive image of Lewis as Samuel Jackson’s character in Django Unchained.

Per ESPN:

“We were going to close the deal to sign him,” Lewis said on Showtime’s “Inside the NFL” on Tuesday night. “Steve Bisciotti said, ‘I want to hear Colin Kaepernick speak to let me know that he wants to play football.'”

“And it never happens because that picture comes up the next day.”

“His girl [Diab] goes out and put out this racist gesture and doesn’t know we are in the back office about to try to get this guy signed,” Lewis said. “Steve Bisciotti has said it himself: ‘How can you crucify Ray Lewis when Ray Lewis is the one calling for Colin Kaepernick?'”

For the time being, Kaepernick remains teamless, but the movement he started remains.
