Any player on the roster who kneels during the Anthem gets a $5k fine.

Problem solved.

I heard Kordell Stewart (QB, Pittsburgh Steelers 1995-2002) on a podcast where he said one of his main gripes with non-guaranteed contracts in the NFL is that players cannot take part in social justice protests and such because their contracts are not guaranteed and they could be cut loose because of it. I had three thoughts when I heard it:

1.) I didn't really have any negative feelings about him before I heard that. But I do now.

2.) That was one of the dumbest and stupidest things I have ever heard from a professional sports announcer.

3.) He says they don't have guaranteed contracts as if it is a bad thing.
