Is it unethical or racist to criticize Kaepernick and attempt to boycott the NFL because you don't like his kneeling for what he believes in?

What makes it different from getting working to get someone fired from Google, or a Berkeley hot dog restaurant, or a University of Arkansas Engineering professorship, all things which have happened in the last two weeks or so? Why are those good and proper things to do, but I'm an evil bigoted racist for not wanting to support Colin Kaepernick?

Update:

Edits mangled my follow up. It should read:

    Since he no longer has a contract with any team in the NFL and no team has approached him with an offer, Your idea of Boycotting the NFL is a little useless.

    NFL is a joke, "football" is a joke

    get a new hobby, or watch baseball

    NFL and the team owners are criminals that only care about the money
