Colin Kaepernick wrapped up his second start this season for the San Francisco 49ers, and decided to go with another statement t-shirt at his post-game press conference. Kaepernick sported a Black Panther Party t-shirt. I’ve got a screenshot of his press conference below, and you can view a slightly better shot from Cam Inman below that.
Kaepernick’s National Anthem protest continues, with Eric Reid and Eli Harold regularly joining him on one knee. The discussion of it has quieted down to some extent, but he continues getting a chance to discuss social issues after games and during mid-week availability. There are nine games left for the 49ers, and while Kaepernick might not start all of them, he will continue taking a knee, and likely continue getting a platform to speak to the many social issues facing the country.

Boycott the NFL on Thanksgiving Day.
The NFL is determined to lose viewers it seems.
That, or its taking one for the team this election season.
I suspect they will be wildly patriotic next year.
>>I suspect they will be wildly patriotic next year.
Too late.
This is getting to where it’s not funny any more.
That ‘fro makes him look like a bad SNL skit or the new trailer for Undercover Brother.
Isn’t this douche’s 15 minutes up?
In other news, the Buccaneers beat the Niners 34-17, with the game not nearly as close as the score might indicate. If it weren’t for the prurient interest in SJW activities, the main NFL news in SF would be how their team in general and their quarterback in particular stink (the same way the Buccaneers did a few years back, but I digress).
Dude reminds me of Angela Davis. Form and function.
Is the NFL still sitting around scratching its head looking for a reason why fans are turning away in droves? /s
They give every reason except that the NFL supports treason. I won't watch an NFL game in the future until these scumbags are unemployed. ALL of them.
Damn NFL is in bed with the left, surprise.
The black community is always over dramatic nowadays when they have it the easiest of any generation before it and are just regressing. They’ll never have the power as Latinos are gaining more power yet even they will be outdone by the Arab extremists that are making their way in. Mexico is going to get some of this all back on them.
To hell with the NFL! Those initials are going to stand for “not for long” if this continues to fester and they do nothing to stop it. Roger Godell is his own worst enemy!
Crapperdick can wear whatever he wants when he is ‘off duty’, but when ‘on duty’ he should not be a $hithead.
Boycott their ad buyers and write and tell them why you are not buying their products.
143 yards passing yesterday, maybe he is practicing kneeling for his job stocking grocery shelves next year.
Oh--good analogy!
Kaepernick tries to redefine patriotism to include his disgraceful behavior, but fails moserably. Wearing Black Lives Matter and Black Panther T-shirts further undermine his ridiculous and tortuous logic that he respects our military and flag and his is merely a protest.
Come on guys. What about the guys on the Giants that got fined for wearing 9/11 on their uniform multiple times. Black guys.
What about the Steelers, who refuse to kneel because an ex army ranger is on the team.
What about my pathetic Jets, who stink but REFUSE to kneel to a man.
I will not go to games or buy merchandise, I will watch only 2 or 3 games a week.
I’ve been through hell the past 11 years and it will continue as what I have they can’t fix, the games make me forget for three hours. 6 hours a week is still NOTHING to the 20something hours I used to watch.
But I promise this. I watch a game where a guy kneels, and it goes off.
