But the Green Bay Packers tight end essentially joined his brother, Clay Matthews JerseysMichael, and other NFL players who have not stood for the national anthem before games this preseason.

Martellus said last week that he believes athletes should use their platform to have a voice on social matters.

On the eve of the Packers’ preseason game at Washington on Saturday, Randall Cobb JerseysBennett posted his own political cartoon on his Instagram account.

The cartoon, which is dedicated to his brother, shows two black players at a podium. Eddie Lacy JerseysOne has a crowd of reporters around him and is being told what to say to promote a product or products. The other has a sign that says “BLM” -- for Black Lives Matter -- and has a smaller crowd of reporters, Aaron Rodgers Jerseysone of whom says, "Stick to sports."“I feel like, for me at this point, for me, when you’re fighting a war, there’s many battles,” Martellus Bennett told reporters after Saturday night’s game. “My brother is fighting one battle, and I’m on a different end of the spectrum fighting a different battle, but we’re in the same war. Just different things we’re doing right now.”

He also said the cartoon was another way to bring attention to social activism because not everyone pays attention to what players do during the national anthem.

“I mean, I look around the national anthem, you still have people selling beers and ... and all kinds of s--- going on,” Bennett said. “It’s not like everybody is standing there at attention, looking at the flag when the national anthem is going on. You have people doing all kinds of s---. People yelling at you, trying to get a picture of you. ... I think people do miss the point. But every day, Jordy Nelson Jerseysanything you do when you have a good purpose of whatever it is that you do, it doesn’t really matter. Most people won’t get it. You just have to keep plugging away, keep chugging away, and eventually change will happen.
