Back in September of 2017 a photo of Michael Bennett, a NFL player for the Seahawks, was going around Facebook, posted by a account called "Vets for Trump". The photo showed Bennett in the middle of the locker room with coaches and player surrounding him, Bennett was holding the American flag and it was burning while everyone was cheering. Bennett quickly explained that the photo was photo shopped and what really was happening was that they were "performing a “now-traditional post-victory dance” in the Seahawks locker room". Bennett has however been kneeling for the National Anthem in hopes "to change the culture" and treat all humans equally.
