FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 7/19/18

JOINT NFL-NFLPA STATEMENT

The NFL and NFLPA, through recent discussions, have been working on a resolution to the anthem issue. In order to allow this constructive dialogue to continue, we have come to a standstill agreement on the NFLPA's grievance and on the NFL's anthem policy. No new rules relating to the anthem will be issued or enforced for the next several weeks while these confidential discussions are ongoing.

The NFL and NFLPA reflect the great values of America, which are repeatedly demonstrated by the many players doing extraordinary work in communities across our country to promote equality, fairness and justice.

Our shared focus will remain on finding a solution to the anthem issue through mutual, good faith commitments, outside of litigation.

I hope these mouthbreathers lose half their business; Americans have better things to be focused on besides large moron barackholes playing kids' games.

Reminds me of unions demanding unreasonable wages and benefits thereby forcing companies to go out of business. I don't see the upside.

The owners own the business and pay the salaries. Meaning they write the rules, especially rules about players negatively impacting the business.

To make matters worse, the players are protesting things that have nothing to do with football! Protest on your own time and on your own dime. Plenty of excellent players out there who just want to play the game if you don't.

The NFL National Anthem Debate is alive and well again - can’t believe it! Isn’t it in contract that players must stand at attention, hand on heart? The $40,000,000 Commissioner must now make a stand. First time kneeling, out for game. Second time kneeling, out for season/no pay!
