CLEVELAND -- A dozen Anthony Chickillo Womens Jersey Browns players took a knee in prayer during the national anthem before Monday night's preseason game against the New York Giants. While the group knelt Arthur Moats Womens Jersey behind the bench, several other players placed a hand on a kneeling teammate's shoulder in support. "There's a lot of racial Bud Dupree Youth Jersey and social injustices in the world that are going on right now," rookie safety Jabrill Peppers said after the Browns' second win in two preseason games. "We just decided to take a knee Carnell Lake Jersey and pray for the people who have been affected and just pray for the world in general." Tight end Seth DeValve, who became the first known white NFL player to take a knee during the national anthem, said recent Daimion Stafford Youth Jersey events in Charlottesville, Virginia, had a lot to do with the decision. But DeValve said it was also more involved. His wife, Erica, is African-American.
