New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees has apologized multiple times following backlash from the community after he said during an interview it is disrespectful to kneel during the national anthem.

“I will never agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the United States,” Brees said during an interview with Yahoo, adding that the national anthem reminds him of his grandfathers, who served in the armed forces during World War II.
