49ers did not tear Kaepernick to other teams, says the owner

You may assume that the San Francisco 49ers did not participate in the collusion efforts against Colin Kaepernick, if there was one, assuming the owner Jed York tells the truth.

Different personalities of the organization were interviewed on many different topics. Kaepernick came, of course.

Kaepernick has not been signed since he's withdrawn from his contract with the 49ers. Kaepernick did so with the understanding that the 49ers would cut him out though he was not retiring. Kaepernick filed a complaint of collusion against the NFL, saying that there was a coordinated effort to keep him out of the league after taking a knee at the national anthem to draw attention to the NFL social issues such as police brutality.

York told Freakonomics Radio that he never said a negative word about Kaepernick to another team and that he had no problem with kneeling Kaepernick.

Jed York supported the demonstration by Colin Kaepernick

York pointed out that the whole story with Kaepernick was "out of control" with fake stories against him.

"I have the impression that he has been trying to change his position to be as respectful as possible during a very sacred moment in a professional football match. And I think the story is sort of out of control.

With that as a backdrop, York said he would not have said anything negative about Kaepernick to another team.

Although the Kaepernick grievance case is likely to be well-publicized, it does not appear that the 49ers will be part of it, according to York.

Garoppolo wanted to set the record straight at the moment that there is no grudge between Brady and him, despite what one could say. Garoppolo said Brady and Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who also played with Brady and Garoppolo on the Patriots, are still writing.
