Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has always been about discipline, respect, and team unity, which is why many believe he would take a strong stance on this issue. When it comes to the national anthem, there’s a growing sentiment that NFL players who kneel during the Star-Spangled Banner should face serious consequencesโincluding being removed from the team.
Kneeling during the anthem disrespects the flag, the country, and the sacrifices made by countless men and women who fought to defend our freedoms. Fans and veterans alike have spoken out against it, and many argue that such actions should have no place in professional sports.
Tomlin has built a reputation as a coach who values character and leadership, and it’s hard to imagine him tolerating anything that divides the locker room or disrespects the country. In the NFL, representing the team means more than just wearing the jerseyโit means showing respect for the values that unite us all.
If youโre representing your team and this nation, you should stand tall for the anthem. Anything less, and maybe itโs time to rethink your place on the roster.
