Prior to the game, as the San Francisco Chronicle’s Ann Killion reported, Buffalo fans “were attacking” him, “with shouts of ‘Get the Muslim,’” while some heady “entrepreneurs were selling T-shirts depicting Kaepernick in the crosshairs of a rifle scope with the words: Wanted: Notorious Disgrace to America.” Other T-shirts read “Shut up and Stand up Kaeperdick.” There were also a group of at least 100 fans that “knelt outside the stadium while the anthem played inside, in support of his message.” And, after the game – in which the 49ers were trounced 45-16 – a handful of Bills players lined up to greet Kaepernick at midfield.
