49ers cheerleader kneels for national anthem before game vs. Raiders
An unidentified San Francisco 49ers cheerleader dropped to her knee Thursday night during the U.S. national anthem, in what appears to be the first public protest by an NFL cheerleader.
In May, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell introduced a policy that would require players to stand or remain in the locker room during the during the anthem.
The policy would fine players who chose to sit or kneel during the pre-game performance. The NFL put the policy on hold for the 2018 season to allow for further discussion between the league and the union, the NFL Players Association.
