Majority feel kneeling during anthem is inappropriate, new poll shows

Colin Kaepernick began a wave of protests in 2016 when he took a knee during the national anthem to protest racial injustice. Kaepernick has not played since the 2016 season and has filed a lawsuit against the NFL, accusing the league of colluding against him. This week, an arbitrator ruled that Kaepernick's case against the league can continue. The issue of players protesting during the anthem continues to polarize the nation. A new poll out Friday shows just how deeply divided the country is on this issue. Andrew Brandt, former vice president of the Green Bay Packers joins “CBS This Morning: Saturday” to discuss why he isn't surprised by the ruling and how it's affecting the NFL fanbase.
