Kenny Stills Criticizes Jay-Z After Partnership With NFL: 'It Doesn't Sit Right With Me'

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills does not agree with Jay-Z's decision to partner with the NFL on some of the league's entertainment and social justice endeavors.

Speaking to reporters on Monday, Stills, who has been kneeling before games in support of former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and to protest social injustice, said Jay-Z's involvement with the NFL "doesn't sit right with me" and criticized the rapper for his comments during the partnership's introductory news conference.

"I think we’ve moved past kneeling and I think it’s time to go into actionable items," Jay-Z, whose real name is Shawn Carter, said last week.
