Kaepernick to work out in front of NFL teams

Quarterback Colin Kaepernick will work out in front of NFL teams Saturday for the first time since he last played professional football nearly three years ago. Since the end of the 2016 season, when Kaepernick began kneeling during the national anthem to protest racial injustice against black Americans, no team has offered him a contract. CBS sports anchor James Brown joins "CBS This Morning" after speaking with the NFL commissioner about the workout.

Russell Wilson: Beyond the gridiron

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, who has led his team to six playoffs, two Super Bowls and one championship victory, is the highest-paid player in the National Football League. But the impact he wants to have goes way beyond money or football. "NFL Today" host and CBS News special correspondent James Brown talks with the 30-year-old Wilson about his role as a mentor to students, and the Why Not You Foundation, which he founded to help empower today's youth. Originally broadcast September 8, 2019.
