He’s not playing because he’s a devout Christian and because York used him as a scapegoat. Other player who knelt are still plsying, so it isn’t that. But others who were Christian were blacklisted.

The being a "Christian" part is highly doubtful as he does not demonstrate much of the attributes of a Christ-Like life.

Anyone who’s been paying attention to Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz knows that he’s a Christian who openly shares his faith in God — and he has no plans of stopping anytime soon.

“I always tell people, for example, if you love your job, you love your wife, you love what you do, you’re going to talk about it,” Wentz recently told CSN Philly. “Well, I love Jesus. That’s what I love, so I’m going to talk about it.”

K was photographed sitting out two seasons before. He’s just flat out lazy. It never had anything to do with his beliefs. When he was called out on it, he said nothing for the longest. It wasn’t until his muzzy gf gave him the flag as an excuse that he issued any statement. She’s also the one who tweeted him out of the latest contract negotiations. He’s too stupid to kick her out of bed. Bet Aldon Smith is counting his lucky stars to be rid of her.

From day one the media made a big deal of players disrespecting our national flag and, by extension, our country and it's citizens. Now any one or more individuals doing the same is spotlighted and discussed endlessly.

From day one football has also been also closely aligned with religion. If fact, during every game, someplace on the field, at some time, a player or players will be saying a prayer. How often is it shown or spotlighted? Where are the discussions about faith by the media.

The media. The league. The owners. The players. All have decided, it's their business and they are free to do what they want.

But they now are presenting a product I am not interested in buying anymore.
