These are the NFL players protesting today amid Trump criticism

Seattle Seahawks vs. Tennessee Titans

The Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans remained in their locker rooms during the national anthem before their game.

"The players jointly decided this was the best course of action. Our commitment to the military and our community is resolute and the absence of our team for the national anthem shouldn't be misconstrued as unpatriotic," the Titans organization said in a statement.

The Seahawks said the team made the decision together.

"We will not stand for the injustice that has plagued people of color in this country. Out of love for our country and in honor of the sacrifices made on our behalf, we unite to oppose those that would deny our most basic freedoms," the Seahawks players said in the statement.

Titans cheerleaders were seen standing on the sidelines with hands over their hearts, like many fans in the stands.

Meghan Linsey, a Nashville singer and runner-up on NBC's The Voice," sang the national anthem. On the last note, Linsey and her guitarist took a knee.
