Take A Knee

After two seasons of NFL players engaging in peaceful, albeit controversial protests against police brutality by kneeling during the national anthem at the start of football games, the organization has banned the practice.

After a season that saw ratings declines, advertiser abandonment, and political/racial divides flare on and off the field, ESPN reports that NFL owners have unanimously approved a new national anthem policy that requires players to stand if they are on the field during the performance.
