Offensive anti-Colin Kaepernick T-shirts selling outside Bills’ stadium
Some Buffalo Bills fans apparently did not heed the words of LeSean McCoy ahead of Sunday’s game vs. the San Francisco 49ers.
Prior to the game, McCoy urged Bills fans to be respectful of Kaepernick in light of the quarterback’s social viewpoints and stance. However, some T-shirts that were for sale outside of Ralph Wilson Stadium encourage hostility towards the 49ers QB.

One of the shirts features a scope on Kaepernick and calls him a “notorious disgrace to America.” The other has a message telling the QB to stand up rather than protest the anthem by kneeling.
Many are strongly against Kaepernick’s social movement and message, including the NFL’s commissioner, though the league is allowing him and others to exercise their rights to protest.
