Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch sat during most of U.S. anthem and stood for the Mexican anthem before their game against the Patriots at Azteca Stadium in Mexico City.
Lynch has not stood for the national anthem since returning from retirement this season.
There did not appear to be any other protests during the anthem as the afternoon games kicked off. Five NFL players protested during the national anthems before early games.
The Dolphins Kenny Stills, Julius Thomas and Michael Thomas took a knee before their game against Tampa Bay.
Giants defensive lineman Olivier Vernon took a knee, as he has done most of the season. The opposing Chiefs stood scattered on their sideline, though cornerback Marcus Peters remained in the tunnel until it was over.

Bottom line? This a-hole and his thug team are getting their butts kicked by the Patriots. How appropriate.

You know what? I was angry as hell for months.
Now they’re not worth it. Let them die a slow death.
The kids are into MMA and Soccer now. And of course baseball.
Many don’t want their kids playing anymore and most of these guys making millions end up broke.
Karma is a b...h. I should know, I dated her :)

Pic is worth a thousand words.
Not even sure there’s a nut house in the country that would take that thing.
Maybe ship him to Zimbabwe where he’d fit right in. He could assist in the power transition of there.

Exactly. I’m over it, I just don’t care anymore what the NFL does. I’m done with them.

While I do agree attendance is down, keep in mind a lot of these are for teams that suck, and normally you’d see a lot of empty seats when they aren’t good.

He used to play for my team way back when. He has always been remarkably devoid of class, even by NFL standards.

Lynch has been an a-hole his entire career. I wouldn’t expect him to change now.
