Attorneys for quarterback Colin Kaepernick and safety Eric Reid are contemplating seeking testimony by President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence as part of the collusion grievances accusing NFL teams of conspiring improperly to keep the two players out of the league, a person familiar with the case said.
Kaepernick and Reid would be expected to attend those depositions if they occur, said the person, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the topic. But the scheduling of such testimony could require significant legal maneuvering if the depositions are opposed by the White House.
