EA has explained why Colin Kaepernick's name was removed from Madden 19. It apologized and said the issue was based on staff members misunderstanding image rights.

Twitter user Mr. Changing Lives tweeted the bleep on Wednesday, and the post was retweeted Thursday by Kaepernick's girlfriend, Nessa Diab, and later Kaepernick himself.
