Especially since it is in their Official Rules!!!!
On pages A62-63 of the league rulebook, it states:
“The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition.”
That is fake. It isn’t in the darn rules!

I just tried to find it in the NFL rule book.
Crickable Rink prease?
(Though you would think the NFL wouldn’t have to put this in writing.)
Not from the rulebook, which is public, but from a game operations manual, which is not.
