Why is Fox News showing Philadelphia Eagles' prayer as national anthem protest?

Update: Fox News issued a statement Tuesday morning apologizing for using 'unrelated footage' of the Eagles in its coverage.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz expressed anger on Twitter over a video Fox News posted Monday night that showed the Pro Bowl player kneeling to pray.

Fox News' video covered President Donald Trump's decision to cancel the Eagles' trip to the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl title. When Trump learned many of the team's players were expected to skip the event, he said he would not welcome a small delegation of Eagles.
