Two high school football players kicked off team

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

Not out of game off freaking team smh

Cedric Ingram-Lewis raised his fist while cousin Larry McCullough knelt during the anthem ahead of the team's game against Providence Classical.


After the anthem ended, head coach Ronnie Mitchem instructed them to take off their uniforms and kicked them off the team. Mitchem is a former Marine and pastor who started the church-based football program in Crosby six years ago.

I didn't even know that was a thing. Also, the coach kicked those two kids off the team even though his small program already has three injured players.
