Donald Trump vs. Roger Goodell and the NFL owners.
And you thought Steelers-Ravens was going to be a must-see fight?
Goodell stood up for the black players in his league Friday night, pledging in a minute-long video to support their fight against racism and social injustice.

• New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees was asked Wednesday by Yahoo Finance about the possibility of NFL players kneeling during the national anthem before games this fall in a peaceful protest against police brutality.
