NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin told a group of senators the league is supporting bipartisan efforts on criminal justice reform, showing that the NFL is becoming involved with concerns of players who have been taking a knee during the playing of the national anthem during the past two seasons.

Goodell and Baldwin signed a letter to members of the Senate Judiciary Committee and others voicing the league’s “full support” for the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act of 2017, saying the bill would “address many of the issues on which our players have worked to raise awareness of over the last two seasons.”
