Three Kansas City Chief players did not participate in the national anthem at a Monday evening game against the Washington Redskins despite a nation in mourning over the recent Las Vegas massacre—the worst shooting in U.S. history.
Marcus Peters and Ukeme Eligwe sat on the bench, while Justin Houston kneeled away from the center of the field in prayer position as the anthem played. Other players stood with their hands over their hearts or locked arms in unity, or did a combination of both, Daily Mail reported.
