Singer Jesse James Decker, wife of Tennessee Titans wide receiver Eric Decker, took to Instagram this week in defense of the National Anthem, claiming her husband was essentially tricked into sitting it out during last Sunday’s Titans and Seahawks game.
Initially, Mrs. Decker posted a photo of herself gearing up to perform the National Anthem along with the following caption:
“One of my favorite things to do is sing the National Anthem. I think about my dad, my uncles, my cousins, both grandfathers who fought in the Vietnam war. I think about how my grandfather paw paw Tim would ask me to sing this song for him every time I saw him and how he would make me turn the other way to sing it so he could just weep and cry as hard as he wanted because it meant so much to him.
