In the midst of the NFL’s Anthem-kneeling controversy last October, ESPN The Magazine reported that Houston Texans owner Bob McNair said during a league-wide owners meeting, “We can’t have the inmates running the prison.”
Condemnation was swift. Most Texans players kneeled during the subsequent game’s National Anthem in protest of McNair, two players left practice, and then-Texan Duane Brown sharply criticized McNair in public.
