Ray Lewis has added an interesting new twist to the ongoing question of why Colin Kaepernick isn’t playing for the Baltimore Ravens right now. In Lewis’s words, Kaepernick’s girlfriend is the problem.
Speaking on Showtime’s “Inside the NFL,” Lewis discussed conversations he and Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti had regarding Kaepernick. “We were talking about giving this kid an opportunity to get back in the National Football League,” Lewis said. “I have been fighting for this kid behind the table like nobody has … I’ve never been against Colin Kaepernick. But I am against the way he’s done it.”
Bisciotti said at the time that he was seeking prayers from fans, asking for their guidance in whether to sign the quarterback who’s drawn far more notoriety for his stance against the national anthem than anything he ever did on a football field. Why an NFL owner would need to run a personnel decision by his fanbase is unclear, unless he was seeking justification for whatever direction he’d already wished to take. Given the fact that Kaepernick rouses emotions far beyond his skills, Bisciotti could find any justification he wished in order to sign, or avoid signing, Kaepernick.
And, as Lewis tells it, the Ravens found that justification courtesy of Kaepernick’s girlfriend, Nessa Diab. According to Lewis, the Ravens were juuuuuust about to sign Kaepernick, but:
“Then, his girl goes out and put out this racist gesture and doesn’t know we are in the back office about to try to get this guy signed,” Lewis said. “Steve Bisciotti has said it himself, ‘How can you crucify Ray Lewis when Ray Lewis is the one calling for Colin Kaepernick?’ ”
The “racist gesture” Lewis is referring to is apparently this tweet from Diab, which uses a still from the movie “Django Unchained” to paint Bisciotti and Lewis as master and slave:

Baltimore Snowflakes
Tell us everything you know about his ex girlfriend
Extremist
That was ing stupid of her obviously.
i don't understand the prob here.
trump can be seen kneeling everyday.
lol Coon ass Lewis got away with murder.
Such a mean tweet tho. Like murdering the whole team. The whole country.
washed up, tbh
90 passer rating, 4:1 td/int ratio last season
He's better than most backups. Better than any qb on the Browns, jets, bears..
You really think he's worth a anymore? As a player that is? I didn't watch any of his games last year, just highlights.
Chris showing off his intellect per par
Read the post you just quoted. It will adequately answer your question
I think it's clear you'd have to modify your offense to him like you would Tebow.
I'd rather have generic no drama drop back passer guy as my backup. I think most GMs think the same.
It's purely financial. Dude cost the League (the Owners) money and he isn't worth what their perceived losses are and now he's persona non grate.
Personally, I stopped watching football live because it's as tedious as baseball and golf- with just more ads. 50 seconds of crazy, non-stop ads and god awful commentary per every 3 seconds of action. Much better on TV when I have a chance to watch, like Golden Girl reruns.
Couldn't give two s about Kaep, or his "message". Doesn't do anything to make me believe he really believes in what he says and his first explanation sounded like a typical, misguided, ignorant Leftist twit- nothing really specific, no solutions, buzz words and just ungrateful for what we have here.
There is merit to his system fit issue. But he'd be a good backup for Carolina, Seattle, Tennessee. Their backups aren't worth a either.
I don't understand the "I can't watch him throw a ball because he's liberal" stuff. Jack del rio was rewteeting hannity during the offseason about seth rich conspiracies but I didn't stop being a raider fan
Nor I. There's plenty of players in the NFL I despise way more than him and I still watch them.I don't understand the "I can't watch him throw a ball because he's liberal" stuff.

Seems like more people were outraged at Kap than when Roethlisberger was accused of rape.
23rd in that (albeit flawed) stat. When only including 2nd stringers, there are 64 nfl qb's. Thanks for making my point
NFL fans don't give a about rapists and murderers on the team. Kneeling silently is the big snowflake trigger tho.
