The widow of Pat Tillman, the former NFL player and Army Ranger who
was killed in Afghanistan, said she doesn’t want his image used as a
politically divisive ploy in the president’s feud with the league's
players.
On Monday, President Donald Trump retweeted an image of Tillman
from user @jayMAGA45, with the caption, “NFLplayer PatTillman joined
U.S. Army in 2002. He was killed in action 2004. He fought 4our
country/freedom. #StandForOurAnthem #BoycottNFL.”

— railing against football players who have taken a knee during the
national anthem in protest of police brutality in the United States.
