NFL Players Already Discussing New Forms of Protest

Various NFL players are reportedly discussing different forms of protesting in response to a new policy requiring players to stand for the national anthem, reports The Hill.

“I talked to a former NFL player yesterday who has said that players are already talking about other ways in which they can protest," NBC's Craig Melvin said on "Today" on Thursday.

I saw this coming. In my post, NFL Owners Considering National Anthem Rule: 15-Yard Penalty for Kneeling, when I wrote:

[I]t should be expanded to be a penalty for any political or social justice demonstration. No one wants to be bothered with this nonsense when watching a sporting event.

The only way for the NFL to get ahead of this social justice nonsense is to handle the problem the way I outlined last year.
