NFL owners have a history of disliking protests

In 2012 the NFL had an issue with Tim Tebow kneeling for each game to
pray, they also had an issue with Tebow wearing John 3:16 as part of
his blackout to avoid glare and made him take it off.

In 2013 the NFL fined Brandon Marshall for wearing green cleats to
raise awareness for people with mental health disorders...

In 2014 Robert Griffin III (RG3) entered a post-game press conference
wearing a shirt that said "Know Jesus Know Peace" but was forced to
turn it inside out by an NFL uniform inspector before speaking at the
podium.

In 2015 DeAngelo Williams was fined for wearing "Find the Cure" eye
black for breast cancer awareness.

In 2015 William Gay was fined for wearing purple cleats to raise
awareness for domestic violence. (not that the NFL has a domestic
violence problem...)

In 2016 the NFL prevented the Dallas Cowboys from wearing a decal on
their helmet in honor of 5 Dallas Police officers killed in the line
of duty.

In 2016 the NFL threatened to fine players who wanted to wear cleats
to commemorate the 15th anniversary of 9/11
