“Bad Blood” between the Dolphins’ Kiko Alonso and 49ers’ Kaepernick

Colin Kaepernick has earned his fair share of praise this season for standing up by kneeling during the National Anthem. The San Francisco 49ers quarterback has helped raise awareness for a number of issues he believes in, not the least of which being Black Lives Matter.

Kap has also made his fair share of enemies. This past Sunday, Dolphins linebacker Kiko Alonso was one of them.

Kaepernick made comments to the media in the week prior to the game that appeared to support Fidel Castro, the recently deceased ex-Cuban leader. In case you somehow were unaware, the United States and Cuba have not had the closest relationship since Castro spearheaded a revolution on the Caribbean island.
