The reasoning of this supposed professional athlete rule model for our youth, attempting to be politically correct and use his first amendment right for a cause that is lacking in substance and truth is just another case of entitlement. The issue I have is the flag and the national anthem is a sign of freedom and those that died to keep it that way. I think this washed up athlete is trying to go out with a bang. All sports have a protocol of what is and is not acceptable behavior in representing what the team and league portrays, but as numerous times the NFL in this regard they have been very lax in enforcing is said desire. He should be protesting on his own and not act as the NFL supports him....
I read some where and I do not remember the sport but the coach said to team if you desire to sit for the National Anthem you will stay sitting and not play........
The thing is these clowns do not realize, I guess, that the Flag has never hurt any one........
