NFL owners approved new rules today to try to deal with the National Anthem protests that got heavy attention from the world and criticism from President Donsld Trump. Players will no longer be required to stand on the sidelines during the Anthem, they can stay in the locker room instead. Players who do take the field during the Anthem shall show respect to the flag and Anthem according to the new policy. Teams can also be fined if players or personnel don't stand and show respect on the sidelines. The new policy allows teams to make their own rules for players who choose not to stand while on the sidelines during the Anthem.
