As a white dude, this makes me sad. If it hurts your teammate, it should hurt you. That's part of being on a team. Silence is complicity.
Wow. I asked a player from the Texans if any white players plan to protest and he said “No. It’s pretty much split right down racial lines.”

It's convenient and safe for them to sit quietly by. So much for "unity"

I wouldn't expect anything less from them. Maybe not all, but MOST stay on code. Unfortunate but true.

LOL! Yet in sports and at work, people stress how important "team" is.

Right, don't employers always state in their hiring postings "must be a good team player" ? When WE need team support now it's a bad thing.pic.twitter.com/bvCGYTD5f0

Let the
#NFL be for white players and let the Black players start their own league. -
