Whether or not you support Colin Kaepernick’s decision to sit during the national anthem to protest to how the U.S. treats minorities, he’s doing a great thing by donating all of the proceeds from his jersey sales to charity.
Heading into the 2016 season, the 49ers backup QB’s jersey is the highest selling jersey in the NFL.
He posted this on Instagram on Wednesday morning.
I want to thank everyone who has shown me love and support, it truly means a lot! I wasn’t expecting my jersey sales to jump to number one because of this, but it shows the people’s belief that we can achieve justice and equality for ALL! The only way I can repay you for the support is to return the favor by donating all the proceeds I receive from my jersey sales back into the communities! I believe in the people, and WE can be the change!
