Raiders' Jason Witten Meets with Vegas Police, Community Leaders Amid Unrest

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Jason Witten addressed local officers and stakeholders Tuesday night amid civil unrest in the aftermath of George Floyd's killing.

"I'm here to listen," the 38-year-old All-Pro said. "... So many amazing work that is being done here in this community, and I think this is a great way to start—to listen and use our actions and our platforms to make a difference with that."

KTNV's Joe Bartels provided more scenes from the meeting:

Witten was named the 2012 Walter Payton Man of the Year for his work in the community, including his own JWSF SCOREkeepers program that mentors children living in battered women's shelters.
