Thomas, who played his entire career with the Cleveland Browns, didn’t appear to be too happy with the remarks.
“I’m sorry you were offended by your country’s national anthem…hopefully you enjoyed the brisket at least!!” Thomas wrote on X.

Former ESPN anchor Sage Steele noted that the playing of the national anthem occurs every day at noon at one of the Mission BBQ restaurants. The restaurant says it has helped raise more than $20 million for national land local charities, including the USO, the Honor Flight Network, Wreaths Across America and more.
“This took place at a @MissionBBQ …and it happens EVERY SINGLE DAY at noon at every one of their restaurants across the country!! It’s incredible to witness & participate,” Steele wrote on X.
“They’re ‘the first responders for the first responders’ – there to help feed first responders no matter the emergency. It’s one reason why the entire Steele family hires them for catering every time we host a party, etc. This is an INCREDIBLE company (with awesome BBQ) that loves our country & respects our military & first responders.”
