The partnership between Jay-Z and the NFL has led to conflicting reports about whether the rap mogul discussed his deal with Colin Kaepernick before agreeing to it.
Per TMZ Sports, Kaepernick's lawyer, Mark Geragos, denied Jay-Z talked to the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback.
Nessa Diab, who has been in a relationship with Kaepernick since 2015, also denied any conversation happened:
NESSATHIS is a lie. COLIN never spoke to Jay-Z and NFL ahead of that deal being done. They NEVER included him in any discussion ud83dudc49ud83cudffd https://t.co/TWmoXS4JVJ https://t.
