Secondary thing----When the players came out for the pledge a handful of players took the knee prior to the pledge and they received a huge round of boos.


From what I’ve read, they received boos when they took a knee during a moment of silence for a slain NOPD police officer, who happens to be black BTW.

They took a knee prior to both the PA announcement of the moment of silence and the appearance of the slain officers photo on the screens. The boos by I'd guess a quarter to a third of those attending, however, began halfway through the request for a show of respect for the officer killed in the line of duty and continued through the entire moment of silence. Which we thought was particularly classy of them.
