Stand or Stay in the Locker Room

In a stark reversal from last year, the NFL on Wednesday approved a new policy prohibiting players from kneeling or showing any form of protest during the playing of the national anthem before games.

The policy, drafted and approved by the league’s owners without input from the NFL Players Association, states, “All team and league personnel on the field shall stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem.”

If a player is on the field but does not stand and show respect for the flag, the team will be fined by the league office. The policy also allows each team to devise its own work rules to punish players who do not stand.
