Cowboys news: Dallas players given the green light to individual protests this season

In the past, Jerry Jones was not amenable to Cowboys players protesting during the national anthem. This year, there seems to be a new attitude in Dallas.

The day after quarterback Dak Prescott said he would agree for his Cowboys teammates to protest individually during the national anthem, defensive tackle Tyrone Crawford made an even bigger statement.

Crawford said Thursday the Cowboys were given the green light to have any form of protest. Just who gave the Cowboys that green light isn’t known, but team owner and general manager Jerry Jones has said he is open to speaking with players about how they protest.
