Aaron Rodgers loves that LeBron James ignored President Donald Trump’s criticism Marcus Cannon Jersey , which included mocking the NBA star’s intelligence. The Packers quarterback called James’ non-response “absolutely beautiful.”
“At a time where he’s putting on display his school, which is changing lives, there’s no need [to respond],” Rodgers told Michael Silver of NFL Media. “Because you’re just giving attention to that (tweet); that’s what they want. So just don’t respond.”
Rodgers suggests the NFL could learn a thing or two from James. The best response, Rodgers said Odell Beckham Jr Jersey , is no response to President Trump’s shots at the league and its players over the national anthem.
“I think that the more that we give credence to stuff like that, the more it’s gonna live on,” Rodgers said. “I think if we can learn to ignore or not respond to stuff like that — if we can — it takes away the power of statements like that.”
Rodgers has never taken a knee during the anthem, but he said critics have unfairly and inaccurately cast NFL players who have protested during the anthem as unpatriotic or anti-military. Players have protested to raise awareness about social injustice.
“I don’t know how many times we can say, as a player and as a group Jerry Hughes Jersey , how much we love and support and appreciate the troops, and the opportunities this country allows us,” Rodgers said. “But this is about equality and something bigger than ourselves, and bringing people together, and love and connectedness and equality and social justice Mark Ingram Jersey , and putting a light on people who deserve to have the attention for their causes and their difficult situations that they’re in. You know, people have their opinion — you shouldn’t do it during the anthem, you shouldn’t do it during this — that’s fine. But let’s not take away from what the real issue is.”
The Kansas City Chiefs have agreed to trade offensive lineman Parker Ehinger to the Dallas Cowboys for cornerback Charvarius Ward, a person familiar with the deal tells The Associated Press.
The person spoke to The AP on condition of anonymity Thursday night, when both teams were playing their final preseason games Adolphus Washington Jersey , because the trade was not expected to become official until Friday.
That means the deal will be done before roster cuts are made on Saturday.
Ehinger had lost his left guard job to Cam Erving early in training camp, and the Chiefs had been happy with the depth they had among backups. So it made sense to deal Ehinger to the Cowboys, where Ward has been a star of training camp after arriving as an undrafted free agent.
Kansas City has been searching for help at cornerback all offseason.
