Colts linebacker and team captain Darius Leonard has confirmed that the entire team will make what he calls a “bold statement” during the national anthem on Sunday, as the NFL launches its first full weekend of action.

“We decided we’re going to make a bold statement, and we’re going to show unity as a team,” Leonard said, according to Stephen Holder of TheAthletic.com.

The Colts have had mixed reactions to protests during the anthem among the players. In the past, the Colts linked arms while at other times, individual players have taken a knee during the anthem.

Another NFL political protest event I won’t watch?

Don’t care. These overpaid fools are way too impressed with themselves.

Yes, it would be bold. And certainly appreciated by their fans, since it would be so different.

Quite refreshing, actually.

“Unity as a team” No longer means what it once meant. Now there are no individuals, only the team, making believe it’s some awesome moral force.

Bunch of small-minded hate filled assholes.

Walk off the field - forfeit the game and your paycheck.
Jeopardize your career for what you say you believe.
That would be bold.
