Trump: NFL owners are ‘afraid of their players’

The president kept mum when asked on Friday if he had a prediction which team would snag the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

“I better not get involved,” Trump said.

Following the presidential party, the Trumps — who have been spending the weekend at their Mar-a-Lago resort — will return to Washington.

Trump has had a contentious relationship in recent months with the NFL, sparring with owners, players and others in the organization about the controversial practice of players kneeling during the national anthem to raise awareness to racial injustice and police brutality.

At an Alabama rally in September, the president said, “Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, ‘Get that son of a bitch off the field right now. Out! He’s fired. He’s fired!'”
