Ray Lewis Tells Colin Kaepernick to Change Social Activism Strategy

Former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis thinks Colin Kaepernick should avoid using the football field as a platform to try to promote social change.

Lewis posted a video message Tuesday in which he discusses the stance Kaepernick has taken as a political activist and why he should "let [his] play speak for itself," via TMZ Sports:

The Ravens have been linked to Kaepernick over the past week, though it's unclear how serious the team is about engaging the free-agent quarterback in negotiations.

Per Jeff Zrebiec of theBaltimore Sun on Sunday, Ravens President Dick Cass said the team has had "direct discussions" with Kaepernick and is weighing whether or not to pursue him.
