NBC announced Tuesday that they will definitely show players if they take a knee during the national anthem at the Super Bowl next month, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

“It’s certainly possible,” Fred Gaudelli, executive producer of the big game, said about the chances of players taking a knee in protest. “It was a pretty big story in our country this fall. We’d show it.”

“When you’re covering a live event, you’re covering what’s happening,” Gaudelli added. “If there are players who chose to kneel, they will be shown live.”

In addition, he defended the drop in attendance at games during the regular season.

“New York had a game in week 17 where it was 4 degrees outside,” Gaudelli explained about the New York Giants matchup against the Washington Redskins on New Year’s Eve. “Why would you go and sit in that when the Giants are 2 and 13?”
