Good morning, New York Giants fans! Here are your Thursday headlines, topped by reaction to the NFL’s national anthem policy.
Anthem policy reaction
NFLPA statement on new anthem policy
The NFL chose to not consult the union in the development of this new “policy.” NFL players have shown their patriotism through their social activism, their community service, in support of our military and law enforcement and yes, through their protests to raise awareness about the issues they care about.
The vote by NFL club CEOs today contradicts the statements made to our player leadership by Commissioner Roger Goodell and the Chairman of the NFL’s Management Council John Mara about the principles, values and patriotism of our League.
