Would Colin Kaepernick be a good fit for the Detroit Lions in Motor City?
When former owner Martha Firestone Ford was in charge of the team, she was against her players kneeling for the anthem. And she requested all Detroit Lions players and personnel to stand.
With the Lions being Ford’s team, her rules would have had to been followed. That meant current free agents like quarterback Colin Kaepernick or safety Eric Reid, players known to kneel during the anthem, would likely not have been welcomed in Detroit.
