San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty in last week’s game against the Chicago Bears, and he turned the ball over four times in the loss.
This clearly frustrated the quarterback as he reportedly used a racial slur that caused him to draw the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty flag.
This caused the league to fine Kaepernick $11,025, but the quarterback is appealing his fine as he continues to deny making these sorts of comments.
Here is a tweet of this report by Sports Illustrated’s official Twitter account.
