In fact they just issued a statement to the contrary
They said they were studying the issue and coming up with a plan
Trump said they made the order. He lied

The NFL says that President Donald Trump was wrong when he tweeted Wednesday that the league is now demanding that players stand during the National Anthem.
Trump praised NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell for taking a hard line on the National Anthem protests, even though that's not what the Commissioner did.

#45 -- lying and knowing that he will never be held accountable.
