About 100 protest national anthem in loud NFL statement
About 100 NFL players took a knee during the national anthem at their games Sunday — including for the first time several New York Giants — while scores of other grid stars linked arms with their coaches and even team owners to protest President Trump’s heated opposition to the anti-racism protest.
The stunning league-wide demonstration kicked off in London’s Wembley Stadium ahead of a game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Baltimore Ravens.
Several Jaguars kneeled on the sideline while others stood arm-in-arm with team owner Shad Khan, who donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration fund.
