Sunday’s NFL action did not begin without controversy, as players around the league kneeled, raised their fists and locked arms in solidarity.
The NFL has become extremely political now, especially after what President Donald Trump had to say in a speech on Friday, and this is what will likely continue to happen going forward.
Patriots fans sure weren’t having it, though. When players kneeled during the national anthem before Sunday’s game, they booed — loudly.
Here’s what the scene looked like.
