GLENDALE, Ariz. This time, Michael Bennett stood for the national anthem.
So did the rest of his defensive linemen. So did the entire Seahawks roster.

For the first time since he began protesting mistreatment of minorities and the need for police reform at the preseason opener in mid-August, Bennett stood during a national anthem at a game. All Seahawks did, after his fellow defensive linemen had joined him in sitting in recent weeks.
