Megan Rapinoe, star of Reign FC, the U.S. women’s national soccer team and MVP of the 2019 Women’s World Cup, singled out Colin Kaepernick in a speech Monday as she accepted an award for being one of Glamour magazine’s women of the year, saying, “I don’t feel like I would be here without” him.
She began her remarks with a lighthearted “shout-out to women this year. Every woman! We’re just killing it the whole year. So shout-out to just women in general.”
Then she turned more serious.

Kaepernick, she said, demonstrated “courage and bravery” and was “filled with conviction, unafraid of the consequences. Because he knew, it really wasn’t about playing it safe. It was about doing what is necessary and backing down to exactly nobody.”
