New Orleans Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins spoke with Bleacher Report's Taylor Rooks on Thursday about racism and where things stand with quarterback Drew Brees regarding his comments about kneeling during the national anthem.
Brees made headlines a few weeks ago when he said during an interview with Yahoo Finance that he didn't agree with kneeling during the anthem because of his belief that it is disrespectful to the flag.
Given the current climate of the United States, with protests being held across the country in opposition to racial inequality, social injustice and police brutality following the killing of 46-year-old Black man George Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis on May 25, there was plenty of backlash from Brees' comments.
