Kaepernick Tells CBS He'll Stand During National Anthem

Quarterback Colin Kaepernick has told CBS that he would stand during the national anthem if given a chance to play football in the NFL again.

According to a report by Jason La Canfora on Sunday, Kaepernick has been living in New York and working out privately in New Jersey with the hope of signing with a team this season.

Kaepernick kneeled during the national anthem last season to bring more attention to the killings of black men by police officers. The protests spread this season after the former San Francisco 49er was unable to sign on with another team.

The issue has grown this season as Seattle Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett recently said he was racially profiled by Las Vegas police during a confrontation, and President Donald Trump aggressively chastised players and owners for protesting during the anthem.

 Too little too late.

And, standing for the anthem still doesn't make him a marketable player.

Kaepernick’s girlfriend: He won’t be standing for anthem
NY Post, Oct 8, 2017

Pro-football quarterback Colin Kaepernick has no plans to stand for the national anthem if he gets another job in the league, his girlfriend said Sunday, following reports he would spike his protest given a second shot.

“The reports that Colin will stand for the anthem are completely false! He has never discussed this with anyone,” tweeted Kaepernick’s gal pal, Nessa Diab, after stories that he would change his tune to land a job surfaced again Sunday.

In one hand, I hold a chewed, muddy cigar-butt that has been sitting in a gutter for three weeks. In the other, I hold an assurance from Colin Kaepernick. For the life of me, I can't decide which of the two is more totally, utterly and completely worthless.

By at least one report, Ms. Diab is the main reason her man is out of a job. Maybe he should stop listening to her.
