Perspective: Redskins ignore Colin Kaepernick, sign Reuben Foster and remind us of who they are

Hate the ownership/ management and think the coach is mediocre at best but I will always love the Redskins. That being said it's abhorrent to not blink an eye signing someone who may have beat a woman while not giving Kaepernick a chance. Skins always seem to pick the wrong way!

Dan Snyder gave a million dollars to trump's election festivities. No way he is going to sign Kap. FULL STOP.

Kaepernick7 Kaeper-Nixed! 👍

Dan Schneider has reached an all the time new low in ruining the Washington Redskins franchise.

Nobody is signing Kaepernick7 because the trump world will not watch and they'll lose ratings and fans,bunch of bitches Redskins he took a stand for the lives being taken by the hands of the white man and they're mad. Let it be the other way around see how they like it.

Look at the name of the Team Reds**n!!!

'we talked about it' as if that clears them of racist collusion in the NFL

That scumbag Kaepernick7 should never play again for what he did to football.

So y’all claimed Foster down 2 QB’s and in the playoffs hunt but won’t sign Kaepernick7 is fighting Social Injustice way worse than fighting women

Dan Snyder= Donald Trump

The team that still calls themselves Redskins...

Kap wouldn’t sign any offers from any team. Why don’t you face facts? Oh I know why, this story is clickbait.

We need a QB better than we Kaepernick NOW !!!!

IanWright0 This is really quite extraordinary.

...maybe because talent? Not everything in life us political, you know. Grow up.

The worst name in NFL this racist game must end

Pathetic. When Dan Snyder gets beat up by his boyfriend is that going to be small potatoes too?

Their Qb goes down for the season and they don’t sign Kap. Yet they sign this dud with a sad and embarassing history 😴😴

Joe Gibbs is the BIGGEST PHONY! Not a Christian at all! Not in the NFL or NASCAR does he play fair! He buys his players & wins! Pays off anyone he can.

Y’all mad as hell over Kaepernick taking a knee.. this man could literally take this woman’s life and it’s 🤷‍♀️🤷🏽‍♂️ Not our business. You cannot make this crap up... How do some of y’all even look in the mirror when you wake up!

Bad move in so many ways.

Colon Kapaknee is owed nothing he made his bed.

I couldn't have said it any better.

Shame on the Redskins

Question. Would you let someone in your home who was intent on setting fire to your house? Didn’t think so

This horse has been dead for a while, hasn't it? He was a bad QB. Now you criticize them for not picking up a bad QB that hasn't been playing for 2 years? No one at WaPo knows shit about football.

Thanks for tweeting this article. I was able to report 10 bots responding to it. Just about every response that is negative was fake.

Who would want to sign a cancer to their team? Seriously? The purpose is to win games, not to make political statements, idiots from WP.

Kap can't play get over it

This will continue as long as fans are willing to pay to see the NFL irrespective of its values.

Nike stock down $5 from the day they announced Colin. Maybe not such a good move?

To remind Colin Kap who he is not! Not beloved, not talented, not wanted!

Judging by what you're saying, Franchise teams should create their roster based on how 'politically influential' they can be. Why don't we try to refrain from having privately owned businesses become vessels for our own political agendas.

Did you mention he turned down an offer from a different team some time ago, Denver I think

When kapernick started the going to one knee shit, I stopped following football! However, who in their right mind would hire that fool! His politics are wrongminded and stupid plus he was not a good quarterback anyway!

KAEPERNICK had the HILLARY SYNDROME: DOESN'T KNOW WHEN TO STOP!!! NO ONE'S GOING TO HIRE YOU!! YOU CAN'T PLAY & YOUR TROUBLE!! ACCEPT IT & GO AWAY!!!

Kaep is the longest-running liberal martyr since Elian Gonzalez.

Yes, but one is a QB and one is a LB.

Yup..Redskins remind us every season...that we are TRASH and I guess this season we're extra trash- we're trash featuring wife beaters and criminals... but hey at least no God damn kneelers..amirite?!?💪 Kaepernick

Teams don’t want a player that wears pig socks. It’s not hard to understand.

No one wants a racist poor performing qb on their roster.

I'm not expecting a team called 'Redskins' to be a decent weathervane for racial issues to be quite frank.

You mean the Redskins chose someone I’ve never heard of over the America hating Kaepernick7? WOW! Never thought I’d live long enough to see a Yankee team be an American team.

This Just In: Football is stupid, and so are the people who run it.

This is embarrassing

BOYCOTT THE Redskins

Redskins Change your frickin name already. That would be an excellent start.

Racists?

GOOD! REUBEN FOSTER STANDS DURING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM! MAGA

Perspective | By claiming Reuben Foster, the Redskins show they’re numb, indifferent and recklessAfter two decades of controversy under owner Daniel Snyder, you would think Washington would be smarter than this. Apparently not. I'll take a team of kneeling protesters over 1 wife beater. The accuser has a history of lying but WAPO has the crazy idea of guilty until proven innocent. That's one of the reasons intelligent people don't take WAPO seriously and don't waste their money reading garbage. also by maintainng their racist nickname, which you should refrain from using

Perspective | Colin Kaepernick can’t even consider playing for the RedskinsIt would be a zenith of insincerity for Kaepernick to continue his stand for racial justice and at the same time take a paycheck from a team that symbolizes racial injustice through its nickname. He been out of football too Long even too consider it an option... not in playing shape Unlike all the other current/past black players who can consider it.

Jason Witten says the Redskins ‘used horrendous judgment’ in claiming Reuben FosterESPN's Lisa Salters reported that Redskins president Bruce Allen told her the team did its own investigation into Foster's case. He is the worst announcer in all sports Why is the team still called the 'Redskins' in 2018? 🤔 I mean, they totally did. The owner essentially said that he didn't care if his players had multiple accusations of domestic assault, so long as they make good plays, which he said remained to be seen. Garbage, absolutely pathetic.

‘Absolutely shameful’: Redskins ripped for claiming Reuben FosterMany who opined online did not think highly of the team's decision to make a waiver claim for the troubled linebacker, who was released by the 49ers after a domestic-violence arrest. Let him play Redskins need help on defense and if the Patriots had signed him y’all be saying it’s a good move! NFL continues to decline. They are trying to win football games. We have this thing called the judicial system to determine his status as a criminal.
