And Nfl Commissioner Roger Goodell says he was looking "forward to making a difference" and driving Social Change .
Nfl Commissioner Roger Goodell and Jay-Z So What 's the controversy?There is anger because Jay-Z has teamed up with an organisation That Some - such as Kaepernick's girlfriend Nessa - Feel is "actively" keeping him "unemployed".
She: "So really, how can Jay-Z and the Nfl utter social justice in their partnership while keeping Colin unemployed because of his social justice work?"
Kaepernick has been without a team since 2017, with allegations of team owners colluding to keep him unsigned - That 's now been settled.
And according to Mark Geragos , both the Nfl and Jay-Z did not contact Kaepernick during discussions about their deal.
"The Deal was already done prior to any conversation That [Kaepernick] had with Jay-Z and he certainly didn't have any conversations with the Nfl ," The Lawyer said.
But Jay-Z says "we've moved past kneeling and I think it's time to go into actionable items" and That this partnership can "inspire" and "educate".

It aims to provide a safe space for Young People - primarily black youth aged 12-18 - and help them "gain legal knowledge for navigating all-too-common violent encounters with police officers. "
"This movement needs all types of People ," says Kaepernick.
"From athletes to healers to poets and artists to scholars and lawyers, we need everyone to contribute to The Struggle .
"The Struggle is affecting all of us. Period. "
