There's more to life than the NFL. Maybe it's not about the game anymore for Kaepernick. Maybe it's more about principle and efforts to break the chains of modern day slavery. If Colin is successful in making his case about collusion among "owners" (dredges up images of masters of plantations), it's possible that he will make enough settlement money that he won't have to worry about an income any longer. I'm sure he'll miss playing the sport at the professional level, but maybe justice is more important and that will have a greater impact on other people's lives as well as his own. Great role model, in my opinion.
