When asked during a press conference whether or not he would continue to sit for the national anthem, Michael Bennett proceeded to compare himself to Dred Scott - a 19th century slave who unsuccessfully sued for his freedom in a Supreme Court decision that helped lead to the American Civil War.
Clay Travis thinks this is one of the most ridiculous analogies ever used by an athlete and can't believe that none of the media present at the conference pushed back on Bennett's comments. Bennett makes over $15 million a year playing football for the Seahawks & couldn't be any further away from Dred Scott.
