#Roommates, are y’all ready to see #ColinKaepernick back on the field?
His attorney #MarkGeragos told @TMZ_tv in an interview that there are two #NFL teams that could be interested in signing Kaepernick.
“I would just say, ‘stay tuned,’ that next week there may be some news,” Geragos teased. When Geragos was asked to give more information, he said hinted the two interested teams are the Oakland Raiders and the New England Patriots.
Geragos also spoke on Kaep’s deal with Nike, confirming that he is “for sure” getting his own shoe as part of the deal.
As we previously reported, #Roomies, Nike’s choice to make Kaep the star of their recent “Just Do It” campaign proved to be a good move for the brand when the company’s stock prices reached $83.90 last week- an all-time high for Nike.
Immediately following the release of the ad, Nike stock saw a 3% dip to less than $80 per share. “Stand-for-the-flag” #Twitter went nuts and vowed to never buy Nike products again. Some people were BIG mad and even posted photos of them cutting socks and burning shoes online.
Contrary to the backlash, Edison Trends revealed that Nike’s online sales increased by 31% two days after the ad was released and made double the revenue in the September 2-4 period than it did last year. CNBC reported that the ad campaign, which also featured stars like Serena Williams and LeBron James, created $163.5 million worth of buzz in just three days.
Nike’s Instagram account also gained over 170,000 #Instagram followers after the ad went public.
Kaep is also in the midst of his collusion case against the NFL. Recently a judge denied the #NFL’s motion to dismiss was denied and now the NFL owners will have to testify under oath.
We’ll keep you updated on the latest, #Roomies.
