Video from the pregame ceremony shows Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes crossing the field as a hail of boos rain down at Arrowhead Stadium in protest to the Black national anthem, titIed “Lift Every Voice and Sing” which has been played at NFL games in the years following the de ath of George Floyd and rise of the Black Lives matter movement.

In stark contrast, Christian singer Natalie Grant went next, singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” to raucous applause from the crowd.
