Colin Kaepernick and Eric Reid settled their collusion lawsuit with the NFL for less than $10 million combined.

Kaepernick filed a grievance in October 2017 under the collective bargaining agreement, alleging collusion against signing him to an NFL contract. It's not clear how the money will be split.

To put Kaepernick's split of the $10 million in perspective, his base salary in 2016 alone was nearly $12 million.

Kaepernick has not been with an NFL team since severing his contract with the 49ers in March 2017. 

To prove collusion, according to the CBA, Kaepernick and Reid would have had to show that a "club, its employees or agents" had "entered into an agreement" to restrict or limit whether to offer them a contract.
