Colin Kaepernick has been making the rounds in the media to express his desire to return to the NFL. The former San Francisco 49ers QB’s last appearance in the league was in 2016, marked by his kneeling during the national anthem to advocate for black rights against police brutality, and racial injustice. Following his departure from the team, Kaepernick continued to use his platform to voice his views, evolving into a prominent social activist.
Despite his journey as an activist, the 35-year-old remains eager for an NFL comeback. He’s been practicing alongside notable NFL players, who have recently commended him while endorsing the sports giant worth $165.37 billion Nike, with Colin. Yet, as Kaepernick actively pursues his goal to return to the NFL, his girlfriend reopens the wounds of the painful incident from seven years ago in the league.

In support of Colin, Nessa added captions to the video, saying, “7 years ago. We are still with you @Kaepernick7. Still here.
