On Monday, Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said "all of our players will be standing" when discussing his expectation for the national anthem during the 2018 season, per Christian Red of the New York Daily News, but he backtracked on those comments Tuesday.
Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk shared Ross' thoughts that his players do support the military and police even if they protest racial inequality and police brutality by kneeling during the anthem:
"I have no intention of forcing our players to stand during the anthem and I regret that my comments have been misconstrued.
