Joint NFL-NFLPA Statement

Joint NFL-NFLPA Statement via NFL Communications

“The NFL community is united more than ever to support one another in these challenging times. We share anger and frustration, most recently as a result of the shooting of Jacob Blake.

While our passions continue to run high, we are proud that our players and clubs, League and Union, are taking time to have the difficult conversations about these issues that affect the Black community and other communities of color in America.  We are especially encouraged that these conversations are about how we can come together to make the necessary and long overdue changes in our country.

We will continue to not only use our collective platform to call out racism and injustice whenever and wherever it occurs in our country, but also fight together to eradicate it.”
