Telvin Smith, a player with the Jacksonville Jaguars, who raised his right fist during the playing of the anthem in a preseason game Thursday night said, "As a man, I've got to stand for something."
The Jags lost to the New Orleans Saints, 24-20. Smith said he didn't know if he'll protest every week but said he felt good about what he did prior to the Jags losing to the visiting New Orleans Saints, 24-20.
