Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick is slamming the NFL\u2019s new embrace of social justice activism four years after he started the national anthem protests that seemingly got him blackballed from the league.<\/p>\n

Mr. Kaepernick criticized the NFL\u2019s new messaging as \u201cpropaganda,\u201d citing the fact that his former teammate and fellow activist Eric Reid remained unsigned.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile the NFL runs propaganda about how they care about Black Life, they are still actively blackballing Eric Reid (@E_Reid35) for fighting for the Black community,\u201d Mr. Kaepernick tweeted<\/a> to his 2.4 millions followers Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cEric set 2 franchise records last year, and is one of the best defensive players in the league,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Mr. Reid, who knelt during the national anthem alongside Mr. Kaepernick in 2016, was released by the Carolina Panthers in March and has not been hired since.<\/p>\n

In his tweet, Mr. Kaepernick cited an article<\/a> by Deadspin\u2019s \u201cjustice journalist\u201d Chuck Modiano, who claimed, \u201cLike Kaepernick, Reid is being blackballed for wanting killer cops to stop getting away with murder\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Reid and Mr. Kaepernick reached a financial settlement last year with the NFL in their joint collusion complaint against the league after alleging it had conspired to keep them out in retaliation for their social justice activism.<\/p>\n

In the wake of the George Floyd unrest, the NFL announced that end zones would include signage reading, \u201cEnd Racism\u201d and \u201cIt Takes All of Us,\u201d and that players would be allowed to wear helmet decals featuring the names of Black people killed by police.<\/p>\n
