Angry Renton driver tells Seahawks players to get off their knees

SEATTLE — An upset driver still irritated by the national anthem protests told Seahawks cornerbacks Neiko Thorpe and Mike Tyson to get off their “little knees.”

In a video posted on Twitter, the woman tells them to “stand up.” She also tells the two members of the team’s defensive backfield that her tax dollars pay for them to play.

The confrontation was recorded outside of the Virginia Mason Athletic Center in Renton, the Seahawks’ headquarters and practice facility. According to the post, the woman followed the two players to work.
