REPORT: Texans Players May Remove Team’s Logo From Helmet Before Game To Protest Owner’s Comments

Houston Texans players met late Saturday to discuss just how they will protest against team owner Bob McNair in response to his controversial comments.

it was released that at a league meeting involving every NFL owner last week in New York, McNair referred to players as ‘inmates’ saying “We can’t have inmates running the prison” in regard to the protest during the National Anthem before games.

According to ESPN, players will likely kneel together, and have also discussed possible peeling the team’s logo decal off their helmets and raising their fists before Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks.
