all we talk about is his protest. How about the fact is he was one of the worst quarterbacks in the league last year and has had several years  of sub par performance. How about the fact that he is a back up caliber guy that wants starter money to sign ? Add to that , all the negative attention and distraction for your team and he is not a help but a hurtful presence on the roster. And for that you get to pay several million a year to watch him on his knee on the nightly news ? He was paid to play football, he was doing it poorly, if he wanted to be a commentator  or an activist then power to him but why pretend that what you really are is a football player ?
