Stating that Kaepernick, 31, is still in great playing shape, Geragos said of Kaepernick going another season without being signed by a team, “There isn’t anyone who has a couple of neurons firing that wouldn’t say this isn’t collusive activity.”

As the NFL season comes to an end, the movement Kaepernick left in his wake has, once again, taken center stage. Here’s what you need to know about the evolution of the athlete’s push for social change — and why some are against it. “To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way,” he continued. “There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder… I am not looking for approval.
