As we know by now, Colin Kaepernick is the face of Nike’s “Just Do It” campaign.

Nike has been receiving a bit of backlash since release of its “Dream Crazy” ad featuring Colin Kaepernick. Even from the President.

On the other hand, the ad has been receiving a lot of praise. The ad will premiere this week during the U.S. Open, M.L.B, and Thursday Night Football (which is tomorrow).

According the New York Times, a spokesperson for NBC Sports, Greg Hughes, confirmed that Nike purchased airtime during Thursday Nights N.F.L game.

The ad that will premier on TV, will be a 90-second version of the ad that was released across digital platforms.
