NFL reacts to former San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick’s boycott after Harrison Butker’s speech
NFL fans reacted to former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s recent statements about the NFL. Kaepernick recently slammed NFL commissioner Rodger Goodell for backing up Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker’s right to give a controversial commencement speech.
As previously discussed on GH, Goodell said he appreciates the diversity of thought in the league:
“We have over 3,000 players. … They have a diversity of opinions & thoughts just like America does. I think that’s something that we treasure & that’s part of ultimately what makes us as a society better.”
However, Kaepernick hasn’t been in the league since 2016, when he started taking a knee to protest police brutality. Kaepernick posted on his Instagram story that he doesn’t watch the NFL:
Kaepernick posted a screenshot of Diab’s story with the text, “That’s why I don’t watch that organization-and I still don’t care who performs at their halftime show.”
Here is a sample of fan reactions to Kaepernick’s boycott of the league. Most fans think Kaepernick is being hypocritical himself because he asked to rejoin the league last season:
