Eric Reid told the Charlotte Observer’s Scott Fowler that he will continue to kneel during the anthem this season to raise awareness of racial inequality, police brutality and social injustice. Eric Reid initially started his protests alongside former teammate, and activist himself, Colin Kaepernick.
“If a day comes that I feel like we’ve addressed those issues, and our people aren’t being discriminated against or being killed over traffic violations, then I’ll decide it’s time to stop protesting,” Reid said. “I haven’t seen that happen.”
In February of this offseason, Eric Ried inked a three year $22 million contract, with nine million guaranteed. Last year Reid appeared in 13 games, recorded 71 tackles, and one interception.
