Not everybody was going to agree with the decision of many NFL players to kneel during the national anthem on Sunday. After around 20 New England Patriots players took the knee, one former player for the team wasn’t happy.
Matt Light, who spent 11 years as an offensive tackle for the Patriots, said that he was “disheartened” to see his former teammates take a knee while he was sitting next to the wife of aย slain SEAL Team 6 member.
“If you think that it’s OK to take a knee during our national anthem and disrespect openly the national anthem, you are wrong,” Light told the Boston Herald.
