Yesterday, the Baltimore Ravens and the Jacksonville Jaguars played one of the NFL’s international games in London. Even on foreign soil, players from both teams knelt during the playing of the US National Anthem. Ravens Outside Tackle Austin Howard, who recently signed a 3-year contract with the team, commented on why he would even kneel during the anthem; his response is gold. Per Independent Journal Review:
The Baltimore Ravens received their share of criticism for the national anthem protests which swept the NFL this weekend. Many Ravens players kneeled during the anthem while playing in London on Sunday. Ravens legend Ray Lewis could be found kneeling along with former and current Ravens players. However, one Ravens lineman was standing for the anthem and, after the game, shared a powerful message about why he would ever kneel.
