Colin Kaepernick knelt during the national anthem on Sunday in his first start of the season. A chant of “USA, USA” bellowed out at New Era Field in Kaepernick’s 45-16 LOSS to the Buffalo Bills..
Several SF 49ers joined Kaepernick in his pregame national anthem protest during week 6. Those players were also losers, maybe even double losers depending who you ask.

Kaepernick knelt during the anthem for the first time as a starting quarterback before a regular-season game and was again joined by safety Eric Reid and linebacker Eli Harold in protest of racial inequality and oppression in the United States. Safeties Antoine Bethea and Jaquiski Tartt, cornerbacks Keith Reaser and Rashard Robinson and running back Mike Davis continued their tradition of raising their right fists during “The Star-Spangled Banner.” h/t espn
