Colin Kaepernick's lawyer believes NFL owners' fear of President Donald Trump is what has prevented the quarterback from getting signed.
Appearing on Amy Dash's Straight Aim podcast (h/t TMZ Sports) on Tuesday, attorney Mark Geragos said, "The only reason—and the owners will admit that—they haven't signed [Kaepernick] is they're afraid of Trump, and they've colluded because of Trump."
After kneeling during the playing of the national anthem throughout the 2016 season in protest of racial injustice and police brutality, Kaepernick went unsigned in 2017, and he remains a free agent.
