While many NFL players who had been kneeling during the national anthem are now staying off the field while the song is performed, most of the Houston Texans team knelt during "The Star Spangled Banner" before yesterday's game against the Seahawks.
Players say it was to protest comments made by team owner Bob McNair. During the recent NFL owners meeting, McNair reportedly said "We can't have the inmates running the prison," in regards to the ongoing player protests.
McNair apologized to the team on Saturday.
