PHOENIX _ The Dallas Cowboys linked arm in arm in a sign of unity and then took a knee as a team before the national anthem in advance of Monday's game against the Arizona Cardinals.
It was the team's coordinated response to President Donald Trump's controversial remarks over the weekend regarding player protests during the anthem over social injustice, police brutality and racism.
The public display came one day after teams across the league took knees, stayed in the locker room and raised their fist in a sign of solidarity to counter Trump's remarks.
The Cowboys' answer came after talks among themselves and as a team with coach Jason Garrett and owner Jerry Jones.
