Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Marcus Peters continued his protest against police brutality and racial inequality, sitting down during the national anthem prior to Thursday's season opener against the New England Patriots.

Peters previously rode a stationary bike during the anthem in the preseason and it seems likely that the All-Pro will continue his protest during the year.

The star defensive back is among several players who said they'd protest during the anthem this season.
