Last weekend was one of the most controversial weekends in NFL history.
After President Donald Trump fired off at NFL players who have been silently protesting racial inequality and police brutality against minority by taking a knee for the national anthem, teams, including the Buccaneers, got together to show solidarity against Trump’s tirade. Tampa Bay players locked arms during the national anthem in Minnesota, although two Bucs took it a step further.
Wide receivers Mike Evans and DeSean Jackson decided to take a knee during the anthem, which drew the ire of some Tampa Bay fans.
On Wednesday in the Bucs’ open locker room, Evans spoke about his actions and his plans for this week’s game against the Giants at Raymond James Stadium.
