1. Mike Bianchi: With new national anthem policy, NFL players should learn from LeBron: You don't have to kneel down to speak up

From Pilot Online: "Meanwhile, NFL owners — who unanimously passed the new directive Wednesday — already are being portrayed as sitting politically somewhere between Donald Trump and George Wallace."

2. Finally, we get our NFL back

From Fox News: "Football is supposed to be a sport that brings all Americans together. Not a sport used by a few activists to make a political point."

3. Opinion: NFL owners chose best alternative to rectify the National Anthem issue

From 11alive: "The NFL owners apparently took the scenic route, time-wise, to reach a policy destination which should have been located long ago."
