Titans Call Off Practice For Protest

Police shooting of jacob blake in wisconsin.

The players had a team meeting that turned into a raw, emotional session on social justice.

Safety kevin byard and quarterback ryan tannehill shared some of those concerns with the backing of their teammates.

Byard:"seeing our black brothers and sisters be murdered by police like it's nothing.

And i feel like it's time for a change."

Tannehill:"i have two young kids that because of the color of their skin, i never have to worry about if they get pulled over by a police officer if they are going to make it out of that interaction alive.

That's a sick fact of the world that we are living in.

So we stand up here together united demanding change that there's equality and justice for all of those situations."
