According to The Advocate’s Joel Erickson, the New Orleans Saints may be planning a gesture that signifies unity for Monday night’s game against the Atlanta Falcons. The gesture, as Erickson notes, is to raise awareness of racial inequality and police brutality.
The players are reportedly hammering out the details, which should be figured out by Sunday. From running back Mark Ingram, the desire is for it to be something from the entire team. Ingram spoke to the importance of equality as a motivating factor behind the gesture.
"That’s what makes our country beautiful: We can come here, we can be free," Ingram said.
