I think PFT hits the nail on the head here if this information is true.

I mean, it's not like anyone can do anything about this "collusion" anyways, he has no right to play in the NFL. They could come out and fully admit they blackballed him if they wanted to, but that wouldn't bring him back into the league or entitle him to compensation. Bad PR sure, but Kaepernick would still be SOL.
I guess you don’t understand how the collective bargaining agreement works. They’ve already paid a settlement to Kaep and an admission would open them up to further compensation requirements.
I don’t think you understand how at-will employment works, and I don’t think you understand what a settlement is, which makes sense given the username. Kaepernick is not entitled to a job anywhere in the USA. However, it is easier to pay him to go away than deal with his baseless lawsuits, for a variety of reasons. An admission of blackballing him would not open them up to compensation requirements because Kaepernick does not have a right to play in the NFL and he hasn’t been discriminated against on the basis of race, gender, sexual orientation, etc.
Kaepernick has no case. If he did, he wouldn’t be taking settlements, he’d be fighting it out in court in an attempt to see real change, like how real civil rights activists do.
