NFL owners voted en mass to make any player who is on the field have to stand for the national anthem and "show respect".
If you can't do that you stay in the locker room.
The rule is made in such a way that it does not have to be compliant with the players collective agreement.
Of course there will be more said on this issue as time goes by.
The NFL is a tired old money machine that needs to be broken up.
On the positive front THE 49ers - who are front and center on this issue due to Kapernick -abstained from the vote and the Jets owner said he will pay any fines incurred by any of his players.
