The Detroit Lions, Cincinnati Bengals and Baltimore Ravens did not pay tribute to Charlie Kirk before their NFL games on Sunday following his assassination in Utah this week.
The New York Jets, Miami Dolphins, Tennessee Titans, New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers and Dallas Cowboys all halted proceedings before their respective kickoffs to remember the life of the 31-year-old MAGA star.
Daily Mail has contacted the Lions, Bengals and Ravens to ask why they did not honor Kirk.
There are still six NFL games to be played this weekend.

The ones who honored him ... you know
The ones who didn’t ... you know.
I don’t fault someone for sitting on the sidelines
Only those who degrade.
Lions management keeps the lions of the political fray including NOT having male cheerleaders

Who cares?
Agreed. The Right is better to steering clear of the Left’s hyper-politicization of everything.
Trump was respectful when Ruth Bader Ginsburg died and in making sure all civic measures were taken to reflect that.
You are right!
Football is gay!
You’re gay too aren’t you?
The owner is a fair person. She did not advocate for the gay stuff, so it is fair she did nothing regarding Charlie. As mentioned, sports are best when they aren’t political.
Yes. It is balanced
Knock it off! He is correct.
Play football, not politics.“
Yes.
Seems like an odd thing to expect.
Thanks! Now that picture will be in my head for the rest of the night.
About what?
“I don’t care what the guy who stocks the shelves at my local grocery store thinks about politics.”
Fair enough; I’m not going to argue that.
But if the grocery store owner wants to lower the flag at his store to half-mast for Mr. Kirk as President Trump has done on federal buildings - I may buy two bunches of carrots when I only need one.
My step son was at the Nascar race at Bristol they acknowledged Kirk
He’s a fag. Or knows one and feels sorry for it. Maybe you do as well. Fag lover.
Do you still catch the short bus?
That would be ok if they were even in supporting causes from the left and right, but the Felon League overwhelmingly supports leftist causes. You forget about the kneelers, and Krapernick wearing piggy police socks?
Detroit-Cincinnati-Baltimore...
Well, DUH!
Might as well ask why the capitals of S.A., Uganda, and Somalia didn’t acknowledge Charlie Kirk...
