Last season kneeling during the national anthem was a hot topic for the NFL. But it looks like the NFL HAS come up with what sounds like a fair compromise on the issue of kneeling for the national anthem.
According to ESPN players on the field will be required to stand, but they will be allowed to remain in the locker room. Players and teams will be subject to fines if they don't show "appropriate respect" for the anthem, and teams will be able to fine players in addition.
