Colin Kaepernick is back on his press run promoting his new book, The Perilous Fight, and he’s not holding back — especially when it comes to Jay-Z’s 2019 deal with the NFL.
In this clip, the panel breaks down Kaepernick’s explosive claims about Jay-Z, including:
Jay-Z calling Kaepernick the day before the NFL press conference, but never taking a meeting in the years prior
Kaepernick’s one request: “Just keep my name out of it” — and how that request was ignored
Jay-Z’s infamous “we’re past kneeling” quote and why the panel says it belittled the entire movement
How the NFL allegedly used Jay-Z to bring Black viewers back after ratings took a hit
The role Trump’s political rise played in muddying the conversation around the protest
Whether Kaepernick’s NFL workout was genuine or came with unprecedented restrictions
Was it collusion? Was Jay-Z used as a shield? And did the protest stop the moment Jay-Z stepped in? The panel debates it all.
