Except he's not. He's made statements in support of his teammates and people who feel the need to kneel, and his teammates have made statements in support of him standing and doing what he felt he needed to do.

Both sides are creating drama that doesn't even appear to exist, and the team has already said they will stand on the sideline the rest of the season.

Overblown is putting it mildly.

He probably got tired of Fox News and Brietbart raking his team through the coals.

He probably got tired of Fox News and Brietbart raking his team through the coals.

And probably tired of CNN and MSNBC praising his team.
