The Rush: Majority of Americans now support NFL players right to protest

Yahoo Sports VideosJun. 11, 2020, 10:32 p.m.

The NFL committed to donating $250 million dollars over ten years, to combat systemic racism and injustices faced by African Americans. A new Yahoo poll shows the percentage of Americans who believe it is appropriate for NFL players to kneel in protest during the National Anthem has gone up from 28% in 2016 to 52% today. We have footage of Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski and the Bucs secret practices. LeBron James alongside Trae Young, Kevin Hart and other black athletes and celebrities formed “More than a Vote,” a non-profit, voter rights group that will focus on issues facing the black community. Unlike most people, the Denver Nuggets All-Star big man Nikola Jokic, has lost a considerable amount of weight during the quarantine. Lastly, a day after NASCAR finally banned the Confederate flag, driver Ray Ciccarelli, who has not led a single lap in a NASCAR race this year, announced he does not agree with the direction NASCAR is taking, and will not participate after the 2020 season is over. Hit the road Ray!
