Lebron James thinks NFL is blackballing Colin Kaepernick

NFL season is already in his prime but former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick is still without a team. Many people think that Kaepernick is being blackballed by the NFL due to his political views and his decision to take a knee during the national anthem. Lebron James agrees with this view, as he said during an interview yesterday:

"I don't represent the NFL. I don't know their rules and regulations. But I do know Kap is getting a wrong doing. I do know that. Just watching, he's an NFL player. He's an NFL player and you see all these other quarterbacks out there and players out there that get all these second and third chances that are nowhere near as talented as him. It just feels like he's been blackballed out of the NFL. So, I definitely do not respect that."

"The only reason I could say he's not on a team is because the way he took a knee," James said. "That's the only reason. I watch football every Sunday, every Thursday, every Monday night. I see all these quarterbacks -- first-string, second-team, third-team quarterbacks -- that play sometimes when the starter gets hurt or are starters that play. Kap is better than a lot of those guys. Let's just be honest."
