Jay-Z Spoke to Kaepernick This Week But NOT About New NFL Deal
Jay-Z says Patriots owner Robert Kraft played a role in fostering the new partnership. He pointed out he and Kraft worked closely on prison reform -- especially Meek Mill's case. Jay said,"I think he saw how serious we were in the room and we've a relationship before, and we basically talked."
Former Giants running back Tiki Barber was in the room during the event and told us on"TMZ Live" ... it was clear Jay is trying to advance the conversation that Kap started with his protest.-- Jay-Z's camp tells us he has absolutely spoken to Kap within the last 48 hours, however ... that was NOT before Jay agreed to his new partnership with the NFL. It's unclear what they discussed, but we're told this was not a case of Jay checking in with Colin for approval.
To be clear ... we're told the question posed to Jay during the media event was simply whether he had spoken to Colin -- NOT whether he had talked to Colin about the partnership.
