Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick has filed a grievance under the collective bargaining agreement against all the owners in the league, alleging that they are colluding to keep him out of the league.
Kaepernick's decision to kneel during the national anthem remains a divisive topic, and once news of the grievance broke, Urban Meyer's wife, Shelley, took the opportunity to rip Kaepernick on Twitter.
Urban Meyer's wife, Shelley, had some thoughts on Colin Kaepernick.

Urban Meyer was asked if he would support one of his players if they decided to protest during the national anthem last month and said "that [would be] between me and the player. To be honest, I don't know. And if I did, I probably wouldn't share it. To me, those are the types of meetings with players that you have trust."
