owner Bob McNair is facing some serious backlash over some comments he .During a conversation about whether or not the NFL should institute a policy calling for all players to stand for the national anthem, owner Jerry Jones "was trying to build momentum for an anthem mandate resolution," according .One of the owners who agreed with Jones was McNair, who made his controversial comment after Jones was done talking."We can't have the inmates running the prison," McNair said.The one comment has opened a floodgate of criticism toward McNair. For one, his own team is thinking about openly rebelling against him. Texans wide receiver is reportedly because he's upset with McNair. It wasn't just Hopkins either, the entire Kyle Guy Jersey team thought about skipping practice before coach Bill O'Brien was able to convince them to attend. McNair offered an ."I regret that I used that expre sion," McNair said. "I never meant to offend anyone and I was not referring to our players. I used a figure of speech that was never intended to be taken literally. I would never characterize our players or our league that way and I apologize to anyone who was offended by it."Although McNair claims he wasn't talking about NFL players, they don't seem to be buying that explanation. cornerback said that McNair's comments show his "true colors." I can appreciate ppl being candid. Dont apologize! You meant what you said. Showing true colors allows ppl to see you for who you are. Richard Sherman (@RSherman_25 Vlade Divac Jersey ) I wish more ppl would do that. So the world could ostracize those who dont want to see EQUALITY. Otherwise they will continue to hide Richard Sherman (@RSherman_25) McNair's Texans will actually be in Seattle on Sunday Mike Bibby Jersey for a game against the Seahawks. Sherman's teammate in Seattle, , echoed the sentiment given by the Seahawks' corner. People sayin how they really feel Bobby Wagner (@Bwagz54) Like Sherman and Wagner, former receiver wasn't buying the apology. Bob McNair said he wasnt talking about the players, Lance Moore (@LanceMoore16) Texans safety was one of the few Texans players who tweeted something about the situation involving their owner. I dont believe he is the only owner that feel that way... smh Treston Decoud (@_TD31) defensive tackle says that McNair's comments should serve as a wake up call. Nahhh Bob McNair didnt say that...nah yall tripping. He couldnt have. Nope he didnt. Did that wake some of yall up now? Damon Harrison (@BigDame900) wide receiver was in shock that an NFL owner would actually say what McNair said. He ain't really say that KamarAiken17 (@KamarAiken88) Although McNair can't be forced out, still thinks the NFL should get rid of him. He gotta go Reggie Bush (@ReggieBush) Several NFL players, including receiver and offensive lineman also took a shot at McNair by referring to themselves as prisoners. Happy Friday, yall. Be kind.Sincerely,Inmate #63925552 Marshall Newhouse (@MNewhouse74) Remember we only hold our players(I meant prisoners) to a higher standard then the ones in charge!! Rishard Matthews (@_RMatthews) Inmates???? Wow!!! Jody Breeze (@Blafell1) Justin James Jersey Matthews' teammate in Tenne see, , referred to McNair's comments as "infuriating." That's how they really feel huh??? These words out this man's mouth are infuriating to me and the rest of my brothers in this League Brian Orakpo (@rak98) Finally, offensive lineman wants Jason Williams Jersey to know if there will be any punishment. What are the repercu sions for the owner of the Texans referring to nfl players as inmates Kyle (@Ky1eLong) Although there's no precedent for something like this, Colts owner Jim Irsay did get suspended six games and fined $500,000 in 2014 for following an arrest in March 2016. If the NFL feels that McNair has violated that policy in any way, the league could have grounds to hand out a punishment.As the , "All persons a sociated with the NFL are required to avoid 'conduct detrimental to the integrity of and public confidence in the National Football League." The ambiguous policy gives a lot of leeway to NFL Commi sioner Roger Goodell to hand out a potential punishment.
