The Seahawks surpassed the 49ers as the team with the most anthem protesters on Sunday . Defensive end Michael Bennett and seven other players sat on the bench during the Star Spangled-Banner, while another player, Michael Wilhoite, knelt.

The Seahawks opponents on Sunday, the New York Giants, only had one player protesting. Olivier Vernon, who wasn’t suited-up to play, took a knee during the anthem:
