I don't agree with taking a knee during the Anthem at a football game, however I respect his right to peacefully express himself.

Nevertheless, I wonder how much of an impact his political stance (um, kneeling) has to do with his being traded from the Rams and possibly being moved off of the Dolphins.
(though, I'll never know the truth)

Did Quinn kneel? I don't remember that. I remember him doing the fist raise.

In any event, he pretty much burned his bridges with the Rams with some unnecessary critical remarks on his way out the door.

..

my bad ... I equated the two as one. In some aspects it is the same, and others it isn't.

I respect his opinion, but I wish it wasn't expressed on the NFL stage.

I thought Quinn's back and his salary were the only considerations for the Rams.

Yeah, his production dropped quite a bit. Probably because of the back problems. His salary made it hard to justify keeping him. His comments after the trade will probably make it hard for the team to think about signing him. He clearly was not happy in LA. But you never know. This is the NFL.
