<p>There has been a lot going on after it was announced earlier this week that Jay-Z’s Roc Nation and the NFL have joined together for a partnership. Many people have shared their thoughts on the latest venture, and it’s safe to say not everyone was pleased.</p>
<p>Yesterday, it was announced that Jay-Z is allegedly set to become part-owner of an NFL team, which has also received mixed reactions.</p>
<p>Eric Reid talked with reporters Friday night, following the Carolina Panthers preseason game against the Buffalo Bills. When asked about his thoughts on Jay-Z becoming part-owner of a team he said, “Jay-Z claimed to be a supporter of Colin — wore his jersey, told people not to perform at the Super Bowl because of the treatment that the NFL did to Colin, and now he’s going to be a part-owner &#8230; it’s kind of despicable.&#8221;</p>

<p>When another reporter asked if he would consider Jay-Z a sellout, Eric responded and said, “It’s approaching that. If Jay-Z is going to be an owner, is Colin going to be signed the day he becomes the owner of the team? We’ll see!”</p>
<p>He continued, I think he has a very small window, with an ownership position, to make a move to get Colin on the field on whatever teams he’s on, very small window.”</p>

<p>As we <em><a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/eric-reid-says-he-will-continue-to-kneel-during-the-upcoming-nfl-season/">previously</a></em> mentioned, Eric joined his former teammate Colin Kaepernick during his silent protest when they were both still a part of the San Francisco 49ers. Although Colin wasn’t signed to another team, Eric received an offer from the Panthers last September to a one-year deal.</p>
<p>Last month, during an interview with the Charlotte Observer, Eric vowed to continue the silent protest by continuing to kneel during the National Anthem.</p>
