so malcolm jenkins could be playing alongside chris, or the newly signed tray else on. the birds need. they'll have to contain odel beckham, jr. and the passing attack, feels better but game time decision if he'll play. >> can't really put odds this, but i think the goal was to take it day-to-day. that's what i've been doing, and it has been improving. and, you know, be back out there, and, you know, see sunday, what happens, you know , pre-game. but -- >> but the guys expected to play, or can play, got to be ready, you know, now they got four guys -- >> eagles defensive tackle tim journigan, find over $18,000 for this one handed tackle, chiefs running back hunt. the league said it was a horse collar tackle which is not allowed. he has six tackles, one and a half sacks in two games. >> well, we will get you ready for the home opener on chevy sunday kickoff. sports director don bell, and yours truely, live from the link, along with the voice of the eagles, americas reese, cast of hundreds 7:30 right here on cbs-3. >> now to baseball, phillies started their final road ser

malcolm jenkins of the philadelphia eagles, he goes on ride-alongs with philadelphia police officersto better understand their job. he has appeared before congress to talk about criminal justice reform. players are interested. this is not, you know, a bunch of molotov cocktail throwers and they're not getting any republican from the white house. >> they're involved in their community and they give back and they can't all be lumped together like this. >> i think if there's one message that i would give, it's that this is not the nfl of t"te longest yard" or whatever you've seen in hollywood or on television. these are guys who are really concerned, so many of them really concerned about their communities and do a lot in their communities and i just think that donald trump is treating it almost like a cartoon character type of exercise that, you know, it doesn't matter. we just want this. we don't want real life to intrude on our game. >> peter, thanks so much. appreciate that. >>> debate continues over whether senate republicans latest attempt to repeal obamacare will get the support

>> i know a lot of guys that were initially in support of colin kaepernick and some guys like malcolm jenkins who's done a lot off the field in the community to meet with members of congress actually i was blessed to be able to accompany him and anquan boldin once. he never kneels but he holds up a fist. that's another form of a peaceful protest. so i think the fact that a number of guys were immediately responsive to what the president said in alabama on friday night, that shows you that players weren't going to back down. but when you look at the whole reason why this thing started from the very beginning is to bring forth a lot of attention to a situation in police communities -- or communities, policing, that needs to be addressed. so my biggest fear is that this becomes a shouting contest between donald trump and the nfl. i think we should give back to -- i applaud the players that are kneeling for whatever their purpose is. it is your first right amendment, whether i agree with it or not, it doesn't matter. but i think that those players, they obviously do have a right, but now they hav

and add in a safety in malcolm jenkins. seven defenders attacking six blockers.e free and get after kirk cousins and force an errant throw ducis. here comes the pressure. now a receiver will come he but because of the pressure cousins makes a poor flay and jalen mills picks it off and saves the day for the eagles. it's about pressure. force the quarterback to make a mistake. here you're going to see crowder open a high throw and jalen mills on the spot. >> late in the game schwartz stayed aggressive again. >> but it's a different kind of pressure late in the game. eagles now up by five with a minute 40 to go still a one score game. the pressure no is the base defense. he calls that wide nine, those defensive ends wide and get after kirk cousins. the eagles caught a little break here because the center blocked away from fletcher cox and brandon graham. that gave those two great defensive players one-on-one and they took advantage of it, ducis. you're going to see a reggie white move from fletcher cox, brandon graham coming around the corner with speed, quick quick

not understandd the players who have been dissenting, talking about people like malcolm jenkins, michaelennett, they're not just individuals, not just people who are sitting during the anthem, their people considered leaders in locker rooms, the most respected people in the national football league. individuals, not justhe is goina lot of these coaches love. they love having these guys in the locker room. there are some of the most thoughtful people they have. what donald trump spurred is remarkable. i would be remiss if i did not read your audience comes as a people know how deep the politics of what we saw sunday was, the statement made by the real seahawks and the refusal to come out for the national anthem. it is brief and worth reading. this is what they said -- on "we will not stand for the injustice that is played people of color in this country. out of love for our country and in honor of the sacrifices made on our behalf, we unite to oppose those that we deny our most basic freedoms. we remain committed in continuing the work toward equality and justice for all. we reached a poi

we want to start with one of the key voices in the conversation, and that's what malcolm jenkins, philadelphiaagles safety, he serves the community, his nonprofit provides scholarships, food, essential resources and sports programs in philadelphia and around the country. thank you for being with us. appreciate it. to you, this is not -- >> appreciate you having me. >> this is not a new protest. since last season you've been raising a fist during the national anthem, and i wondered if you could explain why. >> well, one thing i think that has been missing over this entire year is us getting to the real issues. and i think it started when last summer you had the shooting of castile and alton sterling. as a black man in america with a platform, i no longer want to stand behind social media while we posted hashtag after hashtag of black people dying at the hands unnecessarily of law enforcement. so the first thing i wanted to do was get an understanding of how i could play a role in becoming a part of the solution, and the way i did that was sitting down with local police officers and finding out

commissioner, some executives from the league offers, along with jeffrey lurie partnered up with malcolm jenkin, chris long, tori schmidty believe, to go around, and they met with the police commissioner, and they met with some other offices to, you know, just learn more, and have a dialogue and continue the dialogue about social injustice, and they spent the entire day doing that. >> is that chris long, was that chris? >> the one with the beards, yes >> sounds like they even, because they mention, you mention the police commissioner talking there, they kind of both expressed their sides, why some of the players feel like hey this is why we're expressing ourselves. this is what's going on >> yes, i think for malcolm, and chris, you know, i think it gave them an opportunity to, i think, communicate more as well with the police, and same for officials to communicate back with them. but also to explain what their message was during, as they've done during the national anthem >> okay. hey, ryan in the control room. i think will seem more authentic, maybe put some crowd noise in, maybe little instru

. >> i've talked to malcolm jenkins about it. our community, whether it's social in just is t , autism, there are agent opportunities to be proactive. we hope we'll get more and more proactive. do you think his comments were spot on. where he was sort of saying if you have a cause and you you you get behind it that's better than disrespect ing the national and the lem which is what i think he said about l could in. again it's misguided. i understand yef i lori's heart is in the right place. colin kaepernick is putting his mouth where his heart is. he's putting money to t areas oversees that need money , saving certain areas from environmental issues. colin kaepernick has been putting his money where his mouth is even though he's not employed. regardless of what you you think about his specific protests of kneeling during the national and the anthem, for jeff i lori to say it's disrespectful to do that. if another player -- if that's all they're doing then i think lori's criticism is fair. but specifically with l colin kaepernick

malcolm jenkins and will sit down this weekend. this is what they're saying.ootball fans say they will not watch because of anthem protests. 17% will not watch because of the anthem protest, 10%. too many penalties, 9% just not interested in sports anymore. 64% say players should stop speaking out on political issues all together. your reaction? >> i would say this i think black and white americans need to learn our history. white americans stop apologizing. this country is the greatest in the history of mankind because of what we have done together and what might americans have done to help black americans experience 8 years of a black president. millionaires sitting on the sideline and complaining. and that's why that book is labeled whiners, wienies and wimps. stand up. people like jim brown i respect him. i wish i could respect the leadership in the nfl. those guys have really taken a knee on our country by letting these guys run rampant the way they are with the anti-american sentiment. brian: maybe this won't happen this weekend, burgess. maybe we turn t

. >> last season safety malcolm enkinks was the first -- jenkins was the first eagle to protest during the national anthem. >>> outside, fans took a knee. the mood was mixed. some players said -- some fans said players are being disrespectful by not standing to salute america. >> for the president to come out and say those people should be fired for first amendment rights, exercising their first- horrendous. he's the one who should lose his job. >> there's so many people fighting overseas, and we're disagree with this. it hurts. >> none of the eagles took a knee. some fans told us they thought that was a classy move. >>> president trump is standing his grand amidst the controversy. his latest reaction coming up at 6:30. the u.s. senate will hold hearings on the latest republican plan to overhaul america's health care system as a showdown looms over the graham-cassidy bill. two gop senators have said they will not support the bill. republicans can only afford to lose two votes. defenders say the plan spends the same as obamacare but shifts control from the federal government to the stat

malcolm raised his fist on sunday as others locked arms. >> the narrative has been more about the players or their stances, either right or wrong to do it during the national anthem. >> reporter: jenkins was one of the first players to speak out about social injustice. he spoke with the philadelphia police and has been invited to capitol hill. he said to remember that it's about a better america, nothing to do with the flag. >> this is a way for us to take the lead of that narrative and really point people in the direction of not only what the issues are but what are the solutions that we're working on. >> i am not going to comment on that. >> your liberty stops at the tip of my dues so try not to preach too much to me. >> reporter: now, at their place of employment, some are asking are football stadiums the right venue for players to kneel or opt out of the national anthem. we'll have more on that conversation when we see you at 6:00. for now, live in south philadelphia, cydney long, nbc 10 news. >>> and the hottest nfl jersey belongs to a player who refused to protest. this is alejandro villanueva. he walked to the field for the national field on sunday while the redskins teammates
