N.F.L.: Seahawks and Titans Skip National Anthem After Trump Comments. N.F.L. players across the country demonstrated during the national anthem on Sunday in a show of solidarity against President Trump, who scolded the league and players on Twitter this weekend. With the support of team owners, some of whom joined their teams on the field, dozens of players knelt in silent protests, while Tom Brady and others opted to stand and lock arms. The Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans both stayed in their respective locker rooms prior to their matchup in Nashville. The Steelers also skipped the anthem in Chicago. Stay here for live updates: While the Titans not participating was somewhat of a surprise, the Seahawks had announced in advance that they would not be on the field by issuing a statement. It said:
“As a team, we have decided we will not participate in the national anthem. We will not stand for the injustice that has plagued people of color in this country. Out of love for our country and in honor of the sacrifices made on our behalf, we unite to oppose those that would deny our most basic freedoms. We remain committed in continuing to work towards equality and justice for all. The complete lack of players made for a bizarre scene where team mascots and game officials were the only things the television cameras had to focus on besides the flag and Linsey. Unlike some other stadiums, where fans booed at the protests, the fans in Nashville were eerily quiet during the anthem, and after the song’s conclusion Linsey took a knee on the field.
