Eric Reid says NFL's Colin Kaepernick workout 'feels like a PR stunt'

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers safety Eric Reid on Wednesday called the workout the NFL scheduled for former San Francisco 49ers teammate Colin Kaepernick on Saturday in Atlanta "disingenuous.''

"At this point I'll believe it when I see it,'' said Reid, in 2016 the first player to join Kaepernick in taking a knee during the national anthem to protest social injustice. "At this point it feels like a PR stunt.''

Coaches for the Miami Dolphins, Detroit Lions, Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers have said they expect to have a representative at the workout being held at the Falcons' practice facility.
