"kneeling = disrespecting the flag" is such a weird way of thinking about it too. I mean, it's really hard in general not to roll eyes as a European when you see that excessive patriotism and pathos that Americans love to display before every sports event, but you'd at least expect a player like Brees, who's been a part of NFL locker rooms for a long time now, to see past all that and see the kneeling for what it was.
either way, congrats to the PR adviser on a great apology.
