Houston Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills believes the NFL could have saved lives if it listened to Colin Kaepernick's message.
Steve Gardner of USA Today noted Still's comments come after NFL commissioner Roger Goodell admitted he wished the league would have listened to Kaepernick earlier. Stills called the commissioner's comments "a nice gesture" and stressed how important it is to listen in the future.
"He can say whatever he wants to say now but in a sense, if we would have taken a more stern stance and he would have listened to us in the beginning of this, there would have been so many lives that could have been saved," Stills said.
