Colin Kaepernick says he'll continue to sit for the national anthem until he feels that the "flag represents what it's supposed to represent in this country." As you might expect, this has set off a firestorm of criticism from every corner of the internet.
The latest to weigh in: CBS Sports NFL studio analyst and former NFL quarterback Boomer Esiason, who is wholly unimpressed with the 49ers quarterback.
"I cannot say it in the strongest, most direct way, that it's an embarrassment and it's about as disrespectful as any athlete has ever been," Esiason said at a CBS event Tuesday in New York, via NewsDay's Bob Glauber.
