From Sports illustrated
"The NFL addressed the anthem issue at its meetings in October and March, with plans to further discuss it at this meeting. The league also met with the Players Coalition in October, and agreed to a seven-year, $89 million social-justice partnership.
According to sources, the owners also discussed how to move forward its partnership with the players and finalized the terms of the deal."
