he is actually supporting Kaepernick but most who upvoted failed to comprehend that because he stated his position so eloquently.
No he wasn't .... I listened to the entire interview live and he was not supporting Kaepernick. He wasn't calling him out directly, but he was saying that if you are going to protest something make it a good cause. He implied this Kaepernick thing is not a good cause and he asked his team a question to prove why.
He also went on to say he would be very disappointed if one of his players did it ... plus a lot of other stuff.
Other fans are starting to find out why we love the guy, and so do his players.

didn't listen to the interview but that is very ballsy of him if that's what he said. It's The same reason Harbaugh immediately backed off similar comments. They are coaches in major D1 sports dominated by african american males.
To make the statement that "the protest is not a good cause" is very incendiary. You can question the method of protest, but to question the worthiness of the cause..that's so ridiculous. Shows a total lack of concern for issues that don't effect your daily life. And if it doesn't concern you, then let him protest in whatever manner he wants.
