Cut him some slack, and wear his jersey with the pride that he deserves. He is young and inexperienced in this situation. He did exactly the right thing, but of course, in today’s USA, he will be vilified by roughly half the country. He also got a tongue lashing from his Black coach for daring to defy his order for 100% compliance to stay in the locker room.
It may be the end of his football career because he has been labeled as a “trouble maker” to the owners of the NFL plantation, but he should have no problem finding a more honorable career.
If his Black coach can ORDER 100% compliance to stay in the locker room, he can damn well ORDER 100% compliance to stand for the Anthem.
Screw that. I'd rather give it someone with no self-respect. What's your address? I'll throw in the garbage can outside your house. Wear it with "pride".
