As a NFLPA executive committee member, Richard Sherman is concerned that former 49ers safety Eric Reid is still a free agent.
Reid, who knelt for the last two seasons during the national anthem and alongside Colin Kaepernick for part of that time, believes he may still be a free agent because of his protests of systemic oppression. He expressed as much last week on Twitter.
The notion that I can be a great signing for your team for cheap, not because of my skill set but because I’ve protested systemic oppression, is ludicrous. If you think is, then your mindset is part of the problem too.
