Thursday on NBC Sports radio’s “The Dan Patrick Show,” Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio said there is a “quiet confidence” from Colin Kaepernick’s camp that the activist quarterback can prove the NFL colluded to ensure he stayed out of the league over his National Anthem protests.

“There’s a quiet confidence from Kaepernick’s perspective that they’re getting the bricks that they’re putting in place one at a time to eventually prove that there was coordination among the teams, and really, I think the league office was the main conduit for getting the message out to the teams that a guy like Colin Kaepernick is bad for business,” Florio told host Dan Patrick. “And if you have that kind of coordination, you have a collusion violation.”
