Finally

Shove that nfl up where the moon doesnt shine

Wrong isnt even the right word. You were misguided and unfair and any statements that the NFL put out that DOES NOT include an apology to Kaepernick7 is as far as I'm concerned unacceptable. LawAndOrder apologizetokaepernick

If we gotta watch them get on their knees, they have to at least open their mouths!

I can't wait to see which team picks up Kaepernick7

No duh

the NFL owners are only paying lip service

JFC! Roger Goodell is gonna ruin the NFL a again. I’ll watch bowling before I watch this crap.

Translation: 'We weren't politically correct.'

Will the NFL be slapping 'Cops are Pigs' stickers on players' helmets?

You know come to think of it ... has anyone any recollection in the last four years of any member of the Trump Family, the Trump Organization or even Donald Trump himself announcing or directing a single penny of their own money to be donated to any social cause? One penny?

So when are they going to realize they were wrong for colluding against Junior galette Who is currently Unsign SPEAK ON THAT

Empty words

Kaepernick7 if I were you, my response would be 'this is too little to late and I do not accept your apology. The only reason why you're saying this now is to save face. And that is disingenuous and insincere.' But that's just me.

Apart from Kaepernick7, the NFL is irrelevant, largely due to the treatment of Kap which was morally and ethically unjust and highlighted the lack of class and integrity of NFL

Better late than never.....I guess.

After partnering with the devil BunkerBoyTrump they want to distance themselves today.

We know the devil hooknoses that run the NBA, all professional sports especially the NFL! Punk made Ju-z back doored Brother Colin like a KING SNAKE!!! I'll NEVER watch an NFL game again since 2017!!! Clown show BS!

Bit late now. He sees the money going down the drain and now he is upset. Cry me a river.

Prepare the salt harvesters! This is gonna be a good crop!

Thank you

Sure Jan.

You can see the tide is turning. The NFL does not want to be seen as the league of Trump, especially as they have so much to recoup once they’re back in action. It’s weak & money motivated but they need to be on the right side of history and they know it.

STFU Roger

What are they going to do for Colin Kaepernick?

Where was this energy when Kaepernick was being scrutinised? Also I thought Jay Z said NFL were past kneeling 🙄 lemme guess the money is running dry huh Hypocrites

Forget the 'dead cat' stories. Where's it happening. FOLLOW THE MONEY.

Don't take any of these promises and good intentions on their word. Keep going until you've got it in law. BlackLivesMatter

What are they going to do now?

Apologize and pay Kaepernick.

money money money
