Stallworth, a former NFL wide receiver, said, The number one stated goal was to bring awareness to a lot of these issues and again, its a broad spectrum of issues. Again, its not just police brutality and community policing.
Its also, again from what Im hearing from players directly involved in these talkstheyre telling me its also about the gender pay gap, its also about housing discrimination, they have so many things that they are interested in and advocating for and they want the NFL to take ownership in and help be able to use the NFLs platform.
Not just the players platform but the NFLs platform and that from what I am hearing is a big conversation.
