Gotta wonder if he has exhausted other means of effecting change in the system...

Like contacting his representatives would do any good...

I think he should protest income equality too and give me his check.

The cynic in me makes me think it is very hard to cut him now and he gets to keep his non-guaranteed money.

I understand that Kap's skill set (even when he's 100%) do not fit well in Chip Kelly's offensive system.  It would be in Kap's best interests to move to another team if the financial side can be worked out.  I understand the Vikings now need a QB.

I don't follow the NFL as much as I used to because the Bears stink, but isn't Kap supposed to be a running QB that can throw.  That would seem to fit well or is it is lack of accuracy?

According to Greg Cosell, Kelly's offense requires precision timing and accuracy, neither of which are strengths of Kap.

I can't imagine anything less important than whether or not a pro athlete sits during the national anthem.

There is a certain irony to this event.   The action he took has alienated a number of those he was trying obtain support from.  In other words,  he may have done more harm than good.

The flag/national anthem represent a system that allows people to develop solutions to social problems through self-governance.  The process is very slow but it's the responsibility of those who care to work towards making things better.  I understand Kap's anger and frustration, but not his venting against the principles that will allow positive change.

Venting?

Venting?

The guy did not stand.

That's a strange vent.  And so far I have seen not one comment from him which could be described as even arguably being "against the principles that will allow positive change."
