The attorneys for Colin Kaepernick will be digging deep in their effort to prove the league colluded against their client.
Reports on Tuesday indi- cated that Kaepernick’s at- torneys are seeking to depose former Papa John’s Pizza CEO John Schnatter, as well as Jane Goodell, the wife of NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
The inclusion of Papa John into this group is notable. Papa John was critical of the NFL’s leadership and in the fall blamed the league and its protests as a potential reason for declining pizza sales. There was a report saying people felt Jerry Jones was behind Papa John’s criticism of the league.
Kaepernick filed a law- suit in October alleging the NFL colluded to keep him out of the league due to his politi- cal beliefs. The legal team has been combing through emails

Danielle reportedly started modeling at the age of 13, but it wasn’t until she turned 21, that she packed her bags and moved from her home in Compton, California to New York City.
