Of course, he made one significant change this week. At his postgame news conference, he covered the “B” logo on his headphones with tape, thus abiding by the league’s rules.
Darren Rovell had a good breakdown of what NFL players are and aren’t allowed to do with the headphones. Example: Kaepernick wearing his headphones during warmups before he’s in uniform, like in this photo, is still allowed.

The same can be said for when he’s getting off of the bus. But the postgame news conference is one area where that Beats by Dre logo won’t be allowed thanks to the league’s deal with Bose to be the official sound of the NFL. We assume the masking tape didn’t impact the sound quality. It also didn’t dim the discussion about the controversy.
