Carolina Panthers safety, Eric Reid recently let the public know that we will be seeing him kneel this upcoming football season! He revealed that he is still determined to fight social injustices and racial inequalities, which is why he will be continuing the silent protest of kneeling, popularized by Colin Kapernick.
The NFL did an interview with “The Charlotte Observer” where he explained the reason for continuing to take a stance.
If a day comes where I feel like we’ve addressed those issues, and our people aren’t being discriminated or being killed over traffic violations, then I’ll decide to stop protesting. I haven’t seen that happen.
Reid’s choice to continue kneeling isn’t surprising being that the NFL player was on the San Fransisco 49ers with Colin Kapernick when he first started the protest that swept various sports across the nation. Although Colin did reach an agreement with the NFL he did not get picked up by a team. However, the Panthers added Eric to their roster back in September of last year with a one year contract.
