San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman decried Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on Monday for the latter's decision to require players to stand for the national anthem. "The owner of the Dallas Cowboys, with the old plantation mentality," Sherman told USA Today of Jones. Jones said Wednesday that the Cowboys will require players to "stand during the anthem, toe on the line," words that brought praise from President Donald Trump, who repeatedly has voiced his desire to have the league force all players to stand.
