Burned out, is my guess.

People have to remember that, although the media did their usual hysterical thing about it, kneelers were a HUGE minority among NFL players.

In an actual, non-agenda, real-world media, the headline would have been, “Few NFL Players Join Kaepernick Protest.”

It’s the media that glorified the kneelers and made this a crapfest.

You have a point, except the NFL itself basically kneeled to the players who chose to do so. It agreed to spend $90M on social justice causes, essentially as defined by those radical players. And then there were the league's own butt-kissing statements about the protestors.

So while the story could have been how few there were, the Commissioner's own left-leaning sentiments actually amplified the "cause".
