Houston Texans owner Bob McNair reportedly told NFL players that their 'compadres' should stop kneeling during the national anthem in exchange for help from the owners

The Houston Texans owner reportedly made the comments at a meeting between owners and players to discuss players kneeling during the national anthem.

  • At a meeting between players and owners, Houston Texans owner Bob McNair reportedly told the players that their "compadres" should stop kneeling.
  • McNair had also previously drawn controversy for saying, "We can't have the inmates running the prison," in regards to player protests.
