The NFL national anthem protests continued on Sunday, Oct. 15. While the New Orleans Saints did not kneel during the “Star Spangled Banner” this time, instead, they chose an even more contentious time slot to protest.
Just before the kickoff at the Saints versus the Detroit Lions game, and even before the presentation of the American flag, several Saints players took a knee during a moment of silence for a murdered police officer named Marcus McNeil, the Independent Journal Review reported.
