​The 49ers beat up on the Rams 28-0 in the team's 2016 season opener, but the spotlight is still on Colin Kaepernick.





During a segment on ESPN's NFL Countdown, former NFL quarterback Trent Dilfer went on a rant about Kaepernick's decision to protest the National Anthem. The heart of it being, "The big thing that hit me through all of this is that this is a backup quarterback, whose job is to be quiet, and sit in the shadows, and get the starter ready to play Week 1."

And Kaepernick responded.

This is perhaps the most interesting part of Kaepernick's comments:







"To me, you're telling me that my position as a backup quarterback and being quiet is more important than people's lives. I would ask him to really have a conversation with the families of people who have been murdered and ask him if he still feels that way because I bet you he doesn't because he hasn't experienced that type of oppression."





The last thing the NFL needs is two of the worst quarterbacks to ever play in a Super Bowl beefing with each other, but everything should be okay as long as Randy Moss is there to stare daggers at Trent Dilfer while he continues to make ridiculous comments.
