Jay-Z may think folks are ready to move on from Colin Kaepernick‘s kneeling protest — but Kap says otherwise … shouting out players who continue his movement to this day.
The former 49ers quarterback posted a photo Sunday that appeared to be taking a swipe at something Jay said last week during his press conference with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell — when he suggested “we’ve moved past kneeling” to “actionable items.”
Doesn’t seem Colin sees it that way, though. In his IG post, he included pics of Eric Reid, Kenny Stills and Albert Wilson — all of whom have continued to kneel in the years since Kap first started his racial injustice protest — and shared some kind words about them.
He also used similar verbiage to Jay’s in making his point, writing … “My Brothers @e_reid35 @kstills @ithinkisee12 continue to fight for the people, even in the face of death threats. They have never moved past the people and continue to put their beliefs into action. Stay strong Brothers!!”

ICYMI … Jay was asked about kneeling directly during the Q&A, and said flat-out … we’re past it, and ready to take the next steps. He believes partnering with the NFL is a key way to do that — but Colin and co. have been blasting him these past few days as a sell-out.
Now, it looks like Colin himself has weighed in on the controversy, and it’s clear he ain’t cool with Jay’s new alliance … and sees the issue much differently than Jigga does.
BTW, we’ve learned Jay-Z stands to become a partial owner of an NFL team with this new business venture of his — just another reason he may be looking to bridge the gap here.
