Colin Kaepernick, you are not alone on the gridiron.
We saw some players in the preseason take a knee during the national anthem in support of Kaepernick’s protest against racial injustice. Thursday night we saw the Broncos’ Brandon Marshall do the same. Today, at the start of the Seahawks vs. Dolphins game, we saw players from both sides show their solidarity in their own way.
