Colin Kaepernick shows he's not done with the NFL just yet. The Colts lucked out. And the Niners get a hard lesson in heeding the red flag.
1. Colin Kaepernick isn't ready to throw in the towel
If there's one thing we've learned about Colin Kaepernick by now, it's that he won't go down without a fight. So it should come as no surprise that he is, well, fighting.
Kaepernick filed a grievance against the NFL in October. The core of his argument is that the league colluded to keep him out of football after Kaepernick began protesting police violence against unarmed American citizens.
You would have to believe in elves, talking dogs and unicorns that poop gold to not see that NFL teams have blackballed Kaepernick. Still, the debate has launched numerous arguments, memes and talking points.
There was little else to do in the months of silence that greeted Kaepernick's grievance filing. Leaks were all but nonexistent.
Then this week, a dam burst.
