In what is the most tangible victory thus far for Colin Kaepernick and his legal team, the arbitrator overseeing his collusion case has denied the NFL’s dismissal attempt.

The decision comes in the wake of a summary judgement hearing in which the NFL argued Kaepernick’s attorneys did not have the evidence to meet an appropriate standard proving a collusive effort to keep the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback out of the league.

Both sides filed arguments that included giving arbitrator Stephen Burbank the evidence each had produced in discovery. Those arguments led Burbank to determine the case should move forward, a clear loss for the NFL.

Burbank’s decision suggests there is enough merit in the arguments and evidence produced by Kaepernick’s legal team to warrant a trial on the facts of the case.


There are a lot of unanswered questions about the path of the collusion grievance. But the most important issues at hand have been resolved: Kaepernick’s case moves forward despite the NFL’s attempt to quash it; a trial of the facts will take place; and the arbitrator who made the judgement on both of those developments has given Kaepernick’s legal team an adrenalin shot of optimism in a long uphill battle.

The NFL wouldn't be going through this if kaep was white. Do you deny it? A white man can be fired when his work performance isn't up to standard but blacks play the race card.

The NFL is there to make money. Kaep isn't known for being a good player. I guess his white parents didn't do a good enough job seeing he was raised with privileges. which leave me believing that DNA causes people to be argumentative and lack the ability to succeed. No matter what benefits we give them.

Well you want to piss off your boss. Disrupt business ..you get let go.
Others in the industry ( and it is a industry) see what you did and they don't want you doing it while they are paying you. So you don't get hired
Nothing new with that..business 101
My advice to him:
Buy a Popeye's franchise before all your money is gone..which will be soon ..because either you owe one or in a year or so you will be working the drive thru window at one
He'd done..out of the game too long and tainted..by his own doing
Hope your personal protest was worth the unemployment, Colin
You da man !! Lol

not buying it. This man was not the only one to 'disrupt business'. how many of the others were cut out?

I wonder if DNA causes people to be argumentative and lack the ability to use logic, no matter what privilege they 'earn'.

Ray Rice...sued the NFL and won, but will still never wear a NFL uniform again... And he was way better than Collin...
