"I Don't Belong Here" - Ravens National Anthem Singer Quits Because "Fans Don't Understand"
In the latest sign that the backlash to NFL players kneeling in protest during the National Anthem has been more damaging than players, owners and the league officials had expected, Baltimore Ravens National Anthem singer, and combat veteran, Joey Odoms has announced that he’s resigning just days after about a dozen Ravens players took a knee before a game against the Jaguars in London, the Baltimore Sun reports.
“We greatly appreciate the work Joey did for us and we thank him,” said Ravens senior vice president of public and community relations Kevin Byrne.
