Stephen A. Smith might have a lot more pull than we give him credit for.
The ESPN personality recently sat down with former NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson on their Showtime weekly show, All The Smoke’ to discuss various topics that included Colin Kaepernick.
Smith revealed that it was actually him and Jay-Z who were behind the scenes making sure that the former 49ers QB got a workout in front of NFL teams to give himself a second chance in the league.
He then went on to explain that is why he took the stance against Kaepernick that he did after his workout, because he was upset on how everything transpired from the workout being moved an hour away, to Kaepernick delivering a message and calling out Roger Goodell and the NFL.
