Colin Kaepernick is an American former quarterback and civil rights activist. After a college career at Nevada he was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in 2011, became their starter in the middle of the 2012 season and led the team to Super Bowl XLVII. In 2016 he began sitting and then kneeling during the national anthem before games to protest police brutality and racial inequality, a stand that drew strong reactions in both directions. He became a free agent after that season and was not signed by another National Football League team.
