Wow.
Trump, of course, made controversial comments in Alabama on Friday when he called players who kneel during the national anthem “sons of b——,” sparking protests across the NFL on Sunday.
Norman spoke at length Sunday, and the star became choked up when he discussed the moment he heard what the president had said.

Powerful words from the outspoken star.
The Redskins cornerback joined a host of NFL players and professional athletes who have spoken out following the divisive comments, including LeBron James, Alex Smith, Gregg Popovich and Tom Brady.
