RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Seattle has been at the forefront of the conversation regarding the national anthem protests and the Seahawks’ decision to remain in the locker room prior to their game against Tennessee. Coach Pete Carroll and some of his players have appeared on various national TV outlets in recent days, laying out the reasons for their actions. But they’re also a team that needs a victory after dropping two of three to start the season.

The Seahawks play host to the Indianapolis Colts Sunday Night at CenturyLink Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 5:30pm on KPUG 1170AM & 97.9FM.
