‘Colin Kaepernick grievance set for trial after NFL dismissal request is denied’…

Hope Colin and others who seemingly may have been blackballed by the NFL do get signed - and if the NFL’s own rules were broken by those teams under it’s own Collective Bargaining Agreement (teams and the NFL are forbidden from coming together to deprive a player of employment), that they are admonished too.
 

Despite what I think of what Kaepernick did, I will agree it does not justify violating the NFL’s own rules or the collective bargaining agreement.
