My Most Respected Player of the Week

[Oldschool739]

When Steelers left tackle Alejandro Villanueva was an Army Ranger, he was expected to follow orders.

The fact that he didn’t on Sunday came as a surprise to at least one teammate.


Villanueva was the only Steeler to be seen during the national anthem yesterday, standing with his right hand over his heart while the rest of the team stayed in the locker room, in what coach Mike Tomlin described as a way to avoid being dragged into a political fight.

Wonder if he will be fined by the team for going out on his own.

They'd be hypocrites if they did. Plus I'm sure they don't want the additional bad PR if they fined him.
