Whether or not you agree with the Pittsburgh Steelers’ decision to remain in the locker room during the national anthem prior to last Sunday’s game in Chicago, the aftermath and effects from the controversial decision are still being felt.

Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger talked about how he regretted the decision to remain in the locker room, while fans have voiced their support or displeasure.

Head coach Mike Tomlin has also come under fire for the team’s decision, which he informed CBS of prior to the game. Today, Tomlin was once again asked about the anthem and whether a middle ground can be found on the topic. Tomlin did not hold back in his response.

Tomlin brings up a good point. The guys in the locker room are football players first and foremost, and the anthem is usually not something they think or take notice of right before kickoff.

While people remain split on Sunday’s choice, right now the Steelers are probably more concerned about righting the ship after last week’s overtime loss to the Bears.
