PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, Md. (ABC7) — David Murray is one of seven school board members in Prince George’s County now calling for Colin Kaepernick to sign with the team.
This week, they sent out an open letter to owner Daniel Snyder and other leaders.
“Knowing that we have the most dire need for him, we want him signed right now,” said Murray. “He can do a lot of great work to support our schools and our county if he comes here.”
“Signing Kaepernick would send an even more powerful message today; that a person can peacefully protest for causes that they believe in and not be punished for it,” said school board members in their open letter.
“I’m so proud of the work that Colin Kaepernick has done across the country,” said school board member Ed Burroughs.
President Donald Trump has been critical of the former 49ers quarterback, who recently became the face of Nike’s “Just Do It” campaign.
Kaepernick is known for kneeling during the national anthem, which he says symbolizes a protest against racism and police brutality.
Not all fans agree that Kaepernick should come to the DMV.
“Do we want to go with a guy that's familiar with my terminology who we worked out last week, or with a new guy to back up [Mark] Sanchez with a similar skill set, or go with a guy and teach basically a whole new kind of offense with a new offensive line and with a lot of those zone reads and all that stuff. Not a lot of time to really get a brand new quarterback and new system installed and taught in a couple of days of practice. He's been talked about and discussed, but we'll probably go a different direction,” said Head Coach Jay Gruden last Tuesday.
Miraculously, the Skins make the playoff, but their 4th QB breaks his leg too!
In desperation, they sign Kaepernick and the SOB takes them to the Super Bowl.
I woke up shaking. ;)
He has an active lawsuit against the NFL. Who would hire someone who is already suibg the organization you are a part of?
I would imagine that Redskins management is in a laughing fits over this suggestion.
I can’t get over the fact that some second rate idiot of a schoolboard politician making a hiring suggestion to an NFL team on some specious argument regarding a situation in his school system. This guy needs either electro-shock therapy or a lobotomy.
LMAO!
David Murray
Soy boy beta cuck.
Dude hasn't played in what, three years(?), is out of shape and probably in all honesty hasn't practiced a lick, knowing that he's made a career decision.
He would be a wasted spot on the roster but not a benign one; to the contrary he would be a "cancer in the locker room".
Actually that explains a lot...
“Redskins!!!!!”
How can the self-righteous, morally impeccable man join a team that has such a racist name?
I’m shocked. Shocked.
You mean "Washington" named after a President that was a slave holder?
I gots me a PG County edukation k-12. thank God I left that cess pole ago long time.
- Happy in FL.
