Colin Kaepernick's protest against police brutality and racial inequality remains strong, well into the 2017 season.
Ahead of Sunday's game between the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles, hundreds of activists marched upon AT&T Stadium to remain in solidarity with Kaepernick. The protest also gained traction through the #TakeAKnee hashtag.
