Krapperdick's complaint isn't personal??...it's started out with him getting some needed attention by sitting out the United States National Anthem at the 49ers games. When sitting wasn't enough, he decided to kneel, which got him way more attention. Then the media got involved and the whole thing blew up and boy did he LOVE that attention!
For some reason, he thought this would get him a better position at the NFL, but it backfired in a big way because no one wanted a shit disturber on their team. Then he tried to beg his way back into the NFL, and when that didn't work, he tried to sue his way in.
When nothing would work to get him back playing football, he decided to take his "talents" to the Indian Nation to pow-wow along with them and try to outline all the "oppression" they were going through. When that fizzled out, he then went back to trying to get back into the NFL with no success at all.
Since there were no bites there, Nike decided to get involved, hoping that they could score a corner of the Black athlete market with their "Just Do It" slogan in 2018. What did that mean anyway? Just kneel and make a scene when you want something? And THAT's where the megabucks came in to play when they offered him a $12.3 million dollar deal. Kneeling for the "good of the cause" went out the window when he signed up with Nike. A year later, Nike hasn’t really utilized the unemployed QuarterBack since - unless you count the time he put the kibosh on Nike using Betsy Ross' flag on a special-edition sneaker.
Now when you go on to Nike's site, there's nothing about Krapperdick's plight, and their Summer slogan is: "Where All Athletes Belong"....talk about trying to walk back their colossal mistake with going with the poor spoiled Black guy who grew up in a white privileged home.
In February 2019, Krapper spoke with the Alliance of American Football and XFL about becoming a quarterback for them but wanted a guaranteed $20,000,000 per season. XFL quarterbacks were paid $250,000 per season, while AAF quarterbacks were signed to an unguaranteed $250,000 over three seasons. So if anyone tries to say it's not about the $$$ with him, they're sadly mistaken.
