The NFL has reached a settlement with Colin Kaepernick and Eric Reid, the two players who accused league owners of colluding to keep them out of the league last year after both players chose to kneel for the national anthem before games.

“For the past several months, counsel for Mr. Kaepernick and Mr. Reid have engaged in an ongoing dialogue with representatives of the NFL,” read a joint statement from the league Friday. “As a result of those discussions, the parties have decided to resolve the pending grievances. The resolution of this matter is subject to a confidentiality agreement so there will be no further comment by any party.”

we will never know:suds:

The NFL announced Friday that Colin Kaepernick and Eric Reid's collusion grievances against the league have both been resolved.
The two sides are bound to a confidentiality agreement, so we don't know any details of the settlements, though it's likely that Kaepernick and Reid both received significant financial compensation. "We continuously supported Colin and Eric from the start of their protests, participated with their lawyers throughout their legal proceedings and were prepared to participate in the upcoming trial in pursuit of both truth and justice for what we believe the NFL and its clubs did to them. "We are glad that Eric has earned a job and a new contract, and we continue to hope that Colin gets his opportunity as well." Reid has found a new home with Carolina while Kaepernick has yet to resurface in the wake of his widely-publicized anthem protests.

He's probably made more money by Nike then he's made playing football
It was more advantageous for him to not sign anyway. Had he signed with, say, Baltimore when he visited there him and this whole issue probably would have faded. No commercial, either. The only real reason it's brought up anymore is because of how he wasn't signed.
