Despite being downgraded to a backup quarterback who pretty much never saw the field this season, Colin Kaepernick is still one of the biggest names in professional football. He was spotted in New York City donating old suits to a parole office to help others looking to better their lives. Kaepernick showed up with two boxes of custom made suits as part of his “Know Your Rights Camp” that he started. The campaign which is fully funded by Kaepernick is to raise awareness and education for youth about interacting with law enforcement officials.
Kaepernick was recently named one of Time’s Most Influential People are his boycott of standing for the national anthem became a national topic of conversation. Many felt divided on the quarterback’s action, but it got people talking most importantly. Unfortunately, it seems to have scared teams off as he remains a free agent looking for a team.
