Eric Reid filed some kind of grievance with the league this morning, so I'd imagine he's not gonna be playing any time soon.

ESPN's Dan Graziano reports free agent S Eric Reid has filed a collusion grievance against the NFL. Reid's attorney, Mark Geragos, is the same one who represents fellow free agent Colin Kaepernick in his collusion grievance against the league. Reid has drawn minimal interest as a free agent, visiting only the Bengals, who allegedly asked Reid if he still planned to kneel during the national anthem. It's pretty evident most teams are flat-out refusing to sign players like Reid for their protests. Reid is just 26, in the prime of his career, and coming off maybe his best NFL season. Crap, I was hoping we might sign him at some point. |

So if teams are intentionally not signing guys who may still kneel is there anything wrong with that according to the CBA or law?

Id think each individual franchise owner has the choice to not sign a player if they choose not to for whatever reason, but if theyre colluding with other owners to blackball them league wide...may be some issue there. The owners arent dumb...theyve seen attendence and tv ratings drop. You dont think they want this ridiculous BLM shit to end? Its all based on a false narrative anyways.

Not signing people who kneel is beyond stupid. But the stupid comes from the fans who are pissed off by it, not by the owners who don't want to deal with that bull shit.
But if the owners all got together and said they'd blackball these guys, that's a problem. |

It's not as dumb as caring what other people do during the national anthem which is some jingoistic nationalist nonsense. |

I don't see them winning in court. NFL has the money, endless piles of it. They made their beds and now have to lie in them. They thought they were important but they aren't and players won't help them. They need their money like everyone else.
They will try and get a settlement but I doubt they get anything. NFL isn't going to admit anything.

Kenny Vaccaro and Tre Boston are also FAs. Reid jumped the gun and should have waited until they signed. Nobody wants to pay these safeties 4 to 7 million per when they can get a starting caliber safety in that draft as late as the 4th or 5th round

I was never against these guys kneeling if they wanted to, but i also believe that the owners have a right to alienate them if it is a detriment to the profitability of their business.
They knew what they were doing was causing a backlash, they should have expected this. |
