Team Executive Refuses To Join The NFL In Supporting Colin Kaepernick.

Several years ago, Colin Kaepernick put his NFL career on the line when he decided to protest police brutality during the national anthem. By taking a knee during The Star-Spangled Banner, Kaepernick (a former quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers) sent shockwaves throughout America, forcing NFL fans to think about the horrors of racial inequality and police brutality while trying to enjoy a game of football.
“I’m not going to comment on that at this point. Obviously, everybody, I have respect for what everybody has to say about any of these situations. Everybody has their own way of getting their hands around it. It’s obviously a big challenge. As I said, every organization, every office, every place looks at it a little differently, including whether you’re the NFL or you’re an individual club. Everybody has their views on different things. So, certainly, have respect for everybody’s opinions and views, but probably as far as I’d go with that.”

Over the next few weeks and months, the Cowboys are going to face an uphill battle. As the rest of the country moves forward with the Black Lives Matter movement, Jones and his father will need to come to terms with the changing tide of American football or miss an opportunity of a lifetime.

What do you think about the Dallas Cowboys’ stance on the issue? Do you agree with Stephen Jones or Jerry Jones? What would be your solution for making football more inclusive?
