"...the league believes its players should stand during the national anthem, but said the league has no plans to make them do so." Well, that's definitive.

He CANT enforce it. He has to wait to put it in the new CBA. Which has to be agreed upon by owners and players. 2021 is when the current one is up. Sooooooooooo.....lol

CMSgt (Join to see) So why bother stating this if they are not going to enforce it? what is he afraid of? ...and besides it's in the NFL guidelines/contract that NFL players are to stand and put their hands over their hearts...this was never a problem before Kaepnernick.

No its not in the CBA. The CBA says players SHOULD stand. Thats all. he cant enforce it until its time to redo the CBA in 2021

He is afraid to enforce it...even in light of decreasing revenue from ticket sales and viewership. But that loss of viewers & ticket sales will ultimately cost him his job.
