President Trump Gives NFL Another Anthem Headache by Disinviting Eagles

No Philadelphia Eagles kneeled or raised a fist during the national anthem at the Super Bowl in early February, which the Eagles won in a thriller, 41-33, over the New England Patriots. No Patriots protested either. During the 2017 season, two Philadelphia players, Malcolm Jenkins and Rodney McLeod, raised their fists during the anthem as a demonstration against social injustices. Another, defensive lineman Chris Long, put his hands on Jenkins' shoulders, as a show of support.
