Because he’s an adult acting like a spoiled brat; takes the money then thumbs his nose at the country that made it possible.

You are a 4-6 team, marginal at best and are paying a thug millions to disrespect the country and the game that made him a millionaire. You can very well be 4-6 with a kid out of a D3 school who loves and respects the game and will make millions less.

Unceremoniously cut the moron. You may not get any closer to the playoffs but at least you won’t continue to lose fans.

Why are they playing the MEXICAN NATIONAL ANTHEM? Another reason to boycott the NFL.

No, that’s not it. He’s a douche, not an American.

FTA. "How did a league that was setting ratings records in 2015 suddenly see its audience fall by nearly 20% just two years later ?"

Sept. 1 2016, Colin Kaepernik disrespects the national anthem during NFL pre-season.

Downhill since then, escalating as more and more NFL players join the protest.

Whatever could be causing it ?

Why?

Maybe they should schedule all their games in America-hating countries.

I was watching a golf tournament yesterday. At the bottom of the screen the NFL scores were scrolling by. I did not read any of them. I don’t know who won, or who is in first or last place. Don’t care about the NFL. The golf tournament was LPGA. I don’t even watch the LPGA, but chose it over football.

I like watching the LPGA events. When you’re over 70 and don’t hit it very far anymore, the girls’ swings and distances are about what I aspire to. I get more useful tips watching their short game shots too.
