SANTA CLARA -- An impassioned Colin Kaepernick didn't back down on his controversial move to sit during the national anthem, saying Sunday he'll continue to do so in order to bring attention to what he says are injustices, particularly police brutality, in this country.
"I'm going to continue to stand with the people that are being oppressed," Kaepernick said in front of his locker Sunday while teammates looked on. "To me this is something that has to change. When there's significant change and I feel like that flag represents what it's supposed to represent and this country is representing people the way it's supposed to, I'll stand.
