NFL players only started coming on field for the National Anthem in 2009. The reason: The govt. paid them to stage patriotic displays to boost military recruitment. The Department of Defense and the National Guard paid the NFL a combineod $12.3 million between 2011 and 2015. So the next time you think NFL players should stay out of politics, just remember that politics injected itself into the NFL first, and these players never got a say in being used as army recruitment tools.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump Follow The Philadelphia Eagles Football Team was invited to the White House. Unfortunately, only a small number of players decided to come, and we canceled the event. Staying in the Locker Room for the playing of our National Anthem is as disrespectful to our country as kneeling. Sorry! 11:55 PM -4 Jun 2018

Many people booed the players who kneeled yesterday (which was a small percentage of total). These are fans who demand respect for our Flag!

Great solidarity for our National Anthem and for our Country. Standing with locked arms is good, kneeling is not acceptable. Bad ratings!

We will never back down. We no longer can afford to stick to sports.

DeMaurice Smith @DeSmithNFLPA We will never back down. We no longer can afford to stick to sports. Whether or not Roger and the owners wil speak for themselves about their views on player rights and their commitment to player safety remains to be seen. This union, however, will never back down when it comes to protecting the constitutional rights of our players as citizens as well as their safety as men who compete in a game that exposes them to great risks.
