Drew Brees was in the funny papers for a comment he made about the flag, and he took a ton of backlash for his comments.
He has apologized a few times, but tonight Drew Brees led his team down the field one more time for a victory tonight.
Drew Brees sent a message to the President Trump.
Brees’ statement came about six hours after Trump said Brees “should not have taken back his original stance on honoring our magnificent American Flag.”
“OLD GLORY is to be revered, cherished, and flown high,” Trump wrote in a pair of tweets. “We should be standing up straight and tall, ideally with a salute, or a hand on heart. There are other things you can protest, but not our Great American Flag – NO KNEELING!”
