The Santa Clara Police Officers' Association, who last week said they might not work at San Francisco 49ers home games because of quarterback Colin Kaepernick's recent protests, rescinded its boycott threat.
The police union had sent a letter to the 49ers stating that Kaepernick's protest has ''threatened our harmonious working relationship'' with the 49ers. The Santa Clara Police Department usually deploys around 70 officers at Levi's Stadium for each home game.
The union was upset about Kaepernick's stance for not standing during the national anthem and for socks that he wore depicting cartoon pigs wearing police hats, plus comments he made about police brutality.
