Possibly The Best Way for Players to Respond

Since everything these gutless owners do is for the purpose of keeping their wallets as fat as possible - in fact causing them to get ever fatter. For this they need their players. The players should show unity and let the owners and Roger Goodell know that unless these un-American positions are reversed by the league and the teams, they will go on strike - en masse! That will send a message straight to those billionaire wallets. The owners will find it very hard to ignore, with the whole season at risk for the whole league.

Here is Section 2381 of Title 18 of the U S Code

This is the treason statute 18 USC, section 2381:

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States


Note especially the last clause of the statute. In a sense violation of this statute amounts to a self executing impeachment (and conviction) when applied to a president.
