The Kraft family, owners of the NFL’s New England Patriots, spoke out Tuesday against the death of George Floyd and other acts of racial injustice that have prompted nationwide protests in recent days.
“We are horrified by the acts of racism we've witnessed,” the Kraft family said in a statement released by the Patriots. “We are heartbroken for the families who have lost loved ones, and we are devastated for our communities of color, who are sad, who are exhausted, who are suffering. We know that none of the sadness, exhaustion or suffering is new.
