We, the NFL, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of Black People. We, the NFL, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest. We, the NFL, believe Black Lives Matter. #InspireChange pic.twitter.com/ENWQP8A0sv

FWIW both the Chiefs and Patriots (and probably more) have shared the video on their official twitter accounts

Half? Nah. Only the dipshits that lied about not watching football when the kneeling was going on the first time.

I love it when pro athletes use their platform for the greater good. GO PMII!!

Good for Pat.

Message needed the NFL’s highest profile player.

Wonder if Pat picked Tamir Rice.

If so, good call. That was an especially egregious police shooting.

David Dorn would have been a good name to add...

Great. Now everyone has to do it.

Mahomes opinion really doesn't matter., nor does Drew Brees. People politicize way too much in out society.

Reminds me of when players would get busted and fans didn't really care.

Just play football.

Tell him what ? that I don't need his opinion to make my own determination?

I'm sure he'll be crushed.

They escaped(so far) from getting killed. Several escaped poverty. Does survivors guilt haunt them some? I hope that is not inappropriate

For those taking the mahomes shut up and dribble stance... I am betting his locker room does not feel the same way. Nor would they have liked it if he chose to be silent.

Actually spot on, a little abrasive with the N word, but for the most part, yeah.

If someone gave you a flag of the United States of America, the national anthem of the United States, OR the freedoms that come with being a United States citizen, which would you choose? Hypothetical for sure, and luckily you don't have to choose, you can hug flags and hate people who kneel for the anthem and enjoy the freedoms all at the same time, but let's not get caught up in a realistic argument which is most important, by a long shot.

In the words of George Carlin - "I don't get all choked up about yellow ribbons and American flags. I consider them to be symbols, and I leave symbols to the symbol-minded."
