I’m not sure where you would get the idea that football players are not stupid.
Following Washington’s win against Cleveland, WNEW learned the idea for the gesture came from safety Brandon Meriweather and cornerback DeAngelo Hall.
“We just want to show our supporters what’s going on in St. Louis,” Meriweather said. “We just wanted to show support.”
“That could have been any one of us,” said free safety Ryan Clark. “That could have been any one of our brothers, our cousins… When you get an opportunity to make a statement, and be more than a football player, it’s good.”

Of all these guys, Ryan Clark should be smarter than this. He’s a sharp dude and I thought pretty level headed. Oh well...another set of brainwashed fools.

Yep. I agree. Anyone of them could steal and commit assault and battery.

“That could have been any one of us,” said free safety Ryan Clark. Maybe they were protesting the murder of Odin Lloyd.
