In a number of Instagram posts, San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick called out presidential candidate Donald Trump and discrimination in general.
Kaepernick, who was placed on season-ending injured reserve to have surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder, made four posts on Instagram. Each calling Trump out for a different reason and then closed it out with a quote from retired Air Force Colonel Thomas Moe with the caption, "Food for thought!"
The Instagram posts are included below following the video.
Aaron Donald knows who Deebo Samuel is, and other things the Rams said about the 49ers this week

When Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald was asked about stopping wide receiver Deebo Samuel after a loss to the 49ers in 2020, Donald gave an answer that was perceived as disrespect.
"Who? Who's that?" Donald said.
Donald was asked about Samuel again this week and gave a similar answer, albeit more tongue-in-cheek this time.
"Who's that?" Donald said with a laugh.
Donald then talked a bit about what to expect from Samuel, who had 97 yards and a touchdown on five catches along with five carries for 36 yards and a touchdown in a 31-10 win over the Rams on November 15.
"They move him around everywhere," Donald said. "So he's in the backfield, they do
49ers' Deebo Samuel doesn't seem interested in conversing with Rams' Aaron Donald anytime soon

Deebo Samuel hasn't always gotten much respect from Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald, so it's not surprising he doesn't seem too eager to get to know Donald in person at some point.
Donald was asked how to stop Samuel after a loss to the 49ers in 2020, to which he replied, "Who? Who's that?" Samuel responded on the field last season with 17 catches for 199 receiving yards and a touchdown in two wins over the Rams, then took a shot back at Donald via social media after the second of those two wins.
With the Rams on the schedule this weekend, Samuel was asked by reporters after practice

San Francisco 49ers fans are confident their team will emerge with a victory over the Dallas Cowboys this weekend, the opening weekend of the NFL playoffs. Kyle Shanahan's squad has become a bit of a sexy Wild Card pick.
The Cowboys are favored by three points, and the Niners are the road team. They boarded a Dallas-bound plane after Friday's practice and enter the matchup with a lot of confidence. The 49ers also could be healthier than they have been all season.
Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is still dealing with a thumb injury, but he delivered a gutsy performance in last weekend's regular-season finale against the Los Angeles Rams. He's just one of the
Ambry Thomas makes a believer out of Shanahan, 49ers Faithful with game-sealing interception

The San Francisco 49ers had a long list of unexpected heroes in their 27-24 overtime win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, but none of them made for a better feel-good story than rookie cornerback Ambry Thomas.
A third-round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft out of the University of Michigan, Thomas has come a long way in a short time for the 49ers after being used sparingly earlier in the year. Thomas was inactive for much of the first half of the season and only saw 20 total snaps on defense before Week 14, then was eventually pressed into action due to injuries and entered the starting lineup against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14. He had some struggles at first, but Thomas eventually came into his own and has been a significant contributor on defense ever
