Colin Kaepernick thanks fans for support

A day after a rally in support of him outside the NFL's offices in New York, Colin Kaepernick thanked the participants in a tweet on Thursday.

On Wednesday more than 1,000 people crowded the area around the league's midtown Manhattan offices. Many of those fans wore jerseys with his name and demanded Kaepernick be signed by the start of the regular season on Sept. 7.

On Twitter, Kaepernick wrote: Thank you to everyone who went to support yesterday. My faith always has been and always will be in the power of the people!
