President Donald Trump’s remarks Friday night at a political rally telling NFL fans to boycott games and team owners to fire players who fail to stand for the national anthem has drawn passionate responses around the country from both sides of the issue. Buffalo Bills co-owners Terry and Kim Pegula hosted a team meeting Saturday night, then released a statement of solidarity following the meeting.
Before Sunday’s slate of games, including Buffalo’s inspired 26-16 win over the previously undefeated Denver Broncos at New Era Field, players, coaches, and owners used their forum to express their opinions on the national anthem controversy.
