Ahead of Thursday’s NFL Hall of Fame game between the Denver Broncos and Atlanta Falcons, former Ravens star Ed Reed called attention to police violence with his t-shirt. The Super Bowl winner's shirt featured the faces of Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, and Trayvon Martin among others who were killed during interactions with police. Reed was being interviewed by NBC’s Michelle Tafoya, who didn't ask Reed about his shirt, but he was able to give viewers a closer look.
Former Minnesota Vikings and New England Patriots star Randy Moss made a similar statement during his induction to the Hall of Fame last year. Moss wore a tie with the names of twelve people who were victims of police brutality. He spoke about his tie, stating, "What I wanted to be able to express with my tie is to let these families know they’re not alone. By these names on my tie and a big platform as the Pro Football Hall of Fame, there’s a lot of stuff going on in our country. I just want to let these family members know that they’re not alone."
