Colin Kaepernick gets Time cover after controversial national anthem protest

Colin Kaepernick's controversial national anthem protest has landed the San Francisco 49ers quarterback on the cover of Time magazine

TIME said he was chosen for the cover story because he was the 'obvious choice' after the protest he sparked has become so widespread, 'from the rest of the NFL to high schools and colleges across the country', TMZ Sports reported.

TIME  Magazine's goal was exploring 'the nationwide debate happening around national anthem protests', a spokesperson for Time told the gossip news site. 

Release of the cover comes a day after Kaepernick revealed he had received death threats from critics who believe the 28-year-old's protest is disrespectful.
