** I am not dishonoring any person who died of police brutality***

I am surprised that as a great nation we are, we fail to honor those fallen heros who died protecting others and the country. I guess for the sake of media attention and to gain their love, sports teams will/can do anything.

It would have been very truly inspiring if all the other team members also wore Sgt 1st class Alwyn Cashe's name on their helmet.
 
Courageous - every Steelers helmet had the name of another individual. Villanueva covered that name with the name Alwyn Cashe.

Alwyn Cashe: Sergeant First Class died rescuing soldiers from a burning vehicle in Iraq. Awarded Silver Star. Secretary of Defense Mark Espers recommending upgrade to Medal of Honor after reviewing details of event.
 
In a league void of role models, this WP grad and all around good guy plus a heck of a football player dares the daily norms and dares those who might knock his actions.

I dare anyone to counter what this patriot is doing.

If only his action would spark a trend amongst professional athletes. He had explained his choice to his coach and had permission. He is so classy.

Three years ago, he honored the flag and National Anthem while his teammates stayed in the locker room (I bought his jersey and donated it to charity - just couldn't keep a Steelers jersey in the house ;)).
