Colin Kaepernick, 38, says he no longer supports the NFL after the league blackballed him and targeted fellow protesters, preferring college football and community work instead.
A Quarterback in Exile
Colin Kaepernick, who led the San Francisco 49ers to a Super Bowl after the 2012 season, has not played since the 2016 season finale. The 38-year-old former quarterback told NBC News he now prefers watching college football over the NFL. His absence from professional football began shortly after he started taking a knee during the national anthem to highlight social injustices.
Kaepernick said: 'I'm not gonna support an organization that one, is actively blackballing me, but two, has targeted my brothers who have been protesting as part of this as well.' His decision reflects a deep personal conviction rather than a simple career move.
Legal Battles and Settlements
Kaepernick and former teammate Eric Reid sued the NFL citing collusion. The two sides settled in early 2019, bringing an end to a legal battle that had drawn national attention. The lawsuit underscored the NFL's role in preventing Kaepernick and other players from finding employment after his protest began.
The settlement did not resolve Kaepernick's broader frustrations with the league. He remains vocal about the organization's treatment of protesters and continues to distance himself from professional football, choosing instead to focus on causes he believes in.
Activism and Legacy
During his hiatus from football, Kaepernick has stayed busy with community work. His 'Know Your Rights' camps are designed to educate young people, and his foundation helps pay for independent autopsies, including recently for Mississippi teenager Nolan Wells. He said: 'What I think about is what are the areas that I can do work that I think are going to have an impact and help us move towards that future together.'
When asked about his legacy, Kaepernick said: 'At the end of the day, people will decide what that legacy is, and hopefully that's a positive one.' His focus remains on creating change rather than seeking recognition for his past achievements.
