If we're simply talking in general sports terms, about reasons why Kaepernick is unemployed, summing various specifics into a general "distraction" is completely acceptable.  To say that his demonstrations were a distraction from the business of football, is a fact.  To agree or disagree with the reasons behind his demonstrations is expressing a political point of view.  At least that is how I view it.
