Former NFL defensive back Rodney Harrison stated Tuesday he believes San Francisco 49ers star Colin Kaepernick's "heart is in the right place" concerning his protest of the national anthem, but he doesn't think the quarterback fully understands the situation because he's "not black."
Jordan Heck of Sporting News passed along comments Harrison made about the subject during a radio appearance with Lance Zierlein and Matt Thomas of Houston's SportsTalk 790:
I tell you this, I'm a black man. And Colin Kaepernick—he's not black. He can not understand what I face and what other young black men and black people face, or people of color face, on a every single (day) basis.
