Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett said last week that it would take a white player to kneel for the national anthem “to really get things changed.” Seth DeValve is testing that belief.
The second-year Browns tight end knelt for “The Star-Spangled Banner” during Monday’s game in Cleveland against the Giants, part of a circle of more than a dozen players who bowed their heads in silent protest.
They were flanked by several more teammates who stood and put their hands on the kneelers’ shoulders.

“PAB!”
PAB?
It would be very interesting to see them play each other. My money would be on Bama.
Sad. So many blacks are incapable of understanding how lucky they are that their ancestors got sold into slavery. If not they would be living in Togo. Lol! See how they’d like it.
For being such a “hateful, racist” country, there sure are a lot of black people from Africa and brown people from Latin America who want to cut into the line to get IN, not out. I don’t see much movement by Americans here of whatever background in the opposite direction, although you may wish to lead the pack.
“The Browns’ owner is Jimmy Haslam. He is CEO of Pilot and Flying J. I think Patriotic truckers need to show him how they feel about this.”
They should drive in and take a knee while flipping the joint the finger. Then drive off to a better truck stop.
i never said i went along with it...
your angry pitched fervor screams your intolerance.
they were praying. another right of theirs... you go ahead and espouse the hatred that brings this great country down.
you may think you make america great, but you don’t.
you want to fight to make everyone conform to your ideals... i will die for your right to be free.
not sure I’d say “lucky”... being whipped and brutalized doesnt sound very “lucky” to me...
Oh my goodness, hundreds of people should copy your post and send it to the player or players (choose one or more) who are participating in this bogus protest. I would say tell Goodell and coaches supporting this crap that nobody has freedom of speech on the job, but they probably know that. Like most in a position of authority in this country, they are afraid of what blacks will do if they get pissed off.
i never said that i admire them... you are quick to put words into my mouth and then condemn me for something i did not say... you are the worst of those this country was formed to be free of... oppressors and dictators.
football is a fun diversion... again. lighten up.
love the fact that those who pray are not dragged out and shot in those football stadiums, because you are close to advocating that.
“I was born a poor black child.”
It’s gonna change alright.
because anyone who disagrees with you does not belong here.
your interpretation of the constitution is far from what our founders intended. by forcing people to love the country as you do, is tearing this country apart... not the people living free.
your thinking is more dangerous and anti american than their thinking. think about that as you plan to make everyone do what you want them to do...
Effemall
The team owners ought to put each kneeling player’s name on the scoreboard, and read them off. Let a contingent of Marines escort the players to the 50 yard line, and let them tell the whole stadium what they want.
The NFL won’t care until butts in the seats get up and leave when a player or players does this.
If fans do that, and do it en masse, then the league, networks, affiliates, and advertisera will all get the message.
Screw these animals and their ridiculous sport. Guess this is what comes from having concussions as an expected event in a “sport”. Brain dead idiots. Hope they are happy with each other.
Bye-bye NFL. Haven’t been able to see a game in quite some time and was willing to give them a shot with what’s-his-face not getting signed but...forget it. Don’t miss it.
Lucky for the blacks now living in the USA.
