The Seahawks continue to find themselves at the epicenter of the national debate regarding player protests during the national anthem before NFL games.

After deciding as a team to stay in the locker room Sunday at Tennessee, defensive lineman Michael Bennett went on CNN on Monday to say he’d like to meet with President Donald Trump regarding the messaging behind their protests.

“I would love to sit down with the president and talk about these issues and be able to find a way to fix them, or be able to find a way to have the voice of the people, the people that don’t have the voice that they’re not listening to,” Bennett told CNN’s Anderson Cooper.
