And I may be overreacting, but the owners seem extremely concerned by the impact on their business and I presume they have better data than me.

The first half is you being extremely disingenuous. You know him being loyal to Smith has nothing to do with him being called a racist. When people purposely twist words and put out false arguments like this it accomplishes nothing.
Regarding the 2nd part, the protests have clearly had a negative affect on business, I am not saying otherwise. I am saying that the impact has already happened. Look at this story for the Saints.
https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/11/03/ne...-refuses-award . The Saints protested during the anthem one time and stopped. Since then they have stood for the anthem every time. But because it happened once they lost this fan and he has picked a public fight with them. The damage of the anthem has happened and those fans aren't being won back by anything short of drastic measures like cutting guys who protest. So signing Kaepernick will inflame the minority of fans who have already walked, it will be ignored by the fans who ignore everything already, and it will win over the 50% of players who are angry at Texans ownership right now.
