You realize that Dez Bryant quote is from August right? Before any of this stuff actually escalated?

True, but the statement stands. I'm sure he feels the same way from a month ago. I'm sure alot of players feel this way but don't admit it. They feel pressures to take a knee or lock arms. They don't want to face the backlash if they don't. 

You think some of these white players that are kneeling or locking arms really want too. Trust me it's peer pressure.
hahaha be honest. You had no clue that quote was from August. You're just reaching so hard you're throwing your back out. Dezs opinion most likely changed after he heard what Trump said.

Things changed when Trump opened his big mouth. The players too offense to it and they responded. The players are doing what they want to do when it comes to locking arms or kneeling. No one is forcing them to do anything. Just like no one forced some players to stand rather than kneel. If a white guy wants to stand, he can. Most players have already said they're ok with what any one wants to do. A lot of Steelers players talked to Villanuvea before they did anything.

You're trying to label these players as something they're not. They want better training for police officers. They want the DARE program to be back in schools. They want to police officers to have better resources and equipment. Doug Baldwin talked about this earlier in the week. So for people saying "these players have no clue what they even want." Guess what.... They do.
