Is Jesus Taking Over The NFL ?

It seems like just yesterday that Tim Tebow was laughed out of the NFL for his willingness to share his faith with teammates and the public. Critics didn’t like Tebow kneeling during games giving thanks to Jesus. Many felt Tim should keep that to himself.

A few short years later another player Colin Kaepernick started kneeling for a different reason. Kaepernick said: “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color.”

Today it seems more and more players are unafraid to speak out about their Christian faith.  New England Patriots player Matthew Slater, the son of NFL great Jackie Slater gave  extended remarks about his faith in Jesus Christ during a post-game interview after  Super Bowl LII

With an even bigger spotlight, Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said this in front of a National audience just after his team won the Super Bowl
