There are two ways that players will take a stand:
1) Extreme bravery to put themselves out there alone
2) With solidarity with a group of other players who act together.
I don't hold it against players who aren't quite ready to be the lone one who does it on their team. It's not easy to take a stand in public alone and to face scrutiny and risk being seen as a distraction. The Colin Kaepernick story is a scary one.
