2020-08-24 | NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says he wishes the league 'listened sooner' to Colin Kaepernick | Daily Mail Online
"NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said the league should have 'listened earlier' to Colin Kaepernick and other players who protested racism by kneeling during the national anthem."
'Last year, Kaepernick settled a collusion lawsuit with the league for an undisclosed amount after accusing owners of blackballing him in retaliation for the protests. ', "They're not against our military,' Goodell said. 'In fact, many of those guys were in the military, and they're a military family."
'And what they were trying to do is exercise their right to bring attention to something that needs to get fixed. ', "And we would've benefited from that, absolutely. 'The protests began with Colin Kaepernick in 2016, when he was with the San Francisco 49ers, as a way to address inequality and racist police brutality."
