A former Super Bowl champion said Thursday top white NFL quarterbacks should pick up where Colin Kaepernick was forced to leave off and begin kneeling for the national anthem to bring awareness to perceived racial and social injustice.
Martellus Bennett, who won a Super Bowl with the New England Patriots in 2016 and made the Pro Bowl with the Chicago Bears in 2014, appeared at an Athletes + Activism forum hosted by The Atlantic columnist Jemele Hill.
He said if Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees joined the movement, it could cause some change, according to Yahoo Sports.

What kind of headline is that? Was he a Pro Bowler who played in the Pro Bowl (football) or was he a Pro Bowler in a bowling alley (bowling)? Doesn't any school teach grammar anymore?
ReplyDeleteAnd you'd see the biggest boycott of anything in history if those 3 players pulled that crap.
ReplyDeleteFootball would meet it's demise.
Martellus who?
ReplyDeleteHe's nothing but a washed up bigmouth
ReplyDeletewhores hockey
ReplyDeleteOkay, so what Martellus is saying that if the white QBs kneel it will bring an end to slavery?
ReplyDeleteOnly kneel for God
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, these guys playing with a ball for our entertainment are not heroes. The heroes are in different parts of the world dressed in combat gear carrying a rifle looking out for his team members. Not in tights with shoulder pads, and a dorky helmet, looking out for a guy who just pulled a football out of someone's a$$. Dumb $h!t.
