Houston Texans owner Robert McNair might want to avoid speaking to reporters when he attends the next few NFL owners meetings.
In Orlando, NFL owners are mulling changes to the league's national anthem policy in response to the protests of players. Those protests, which occurred league-wide this past season, have taken place during the playing of the anthem.
Once again, McNair addressed the issue by saying NFL playing fields are “not the place for political statements” and teams must show angry fans that they “respect our flag and respect our country.”
McNair also decided to offer his opinion on the controversial comments made by Carolina Panthers' owner Jerry Richardson.
