NFL to continue end zone social justice slogans including ‘End Racism' in upcoming season: Report
The NFL will continue to stencil social justice slogans in end zones for the sixth straight season, the Associated Press reported Thursday, carrying on a program that began in the wake of the murder of George Floyd and the subsequent protests against police brutality. As has been the case in recent years, teams will be able to choose between 'End Racism,' 'Choose Love,' 'Inspire Change' or 'Stop Hate' in one end zone, with 'Inspire Change' replacing 'Vote,' offered in 2024. The opposite end zone will feature 'It Takes All of Us.' Players can also voluntarily choose to wear one of the slogans on their helmets. The NFL will also continue other end zone slogans such as 'Salute to Service,' honoring veterans, the AP reported. Advertisement 'We're working hand-in-hand with players, and alongside our clubs, to amplify player voices and underscore what is most important to them,' Anna Isaacson, the NFL's senior vice president of social responsibility, told the AP. 'For decades, the NFL and its players have been a unifying force in American culture and society that brings people of all cultures and backgrounds together to enjoy America's most popular sport.' From 2021 to 2024, the NFL featured 'End Racism' in one of the end zones during the Super Bowl, but in 2025, the league decided that Super Bowl LIX would feature 'Choose Love' alongside 'It Takes All of Us' instead. That decision faced criticism in a moment when diversity initiatives were under attack, including by the recently inaugurated President Donald Trump, who was in attendance at the Super Bowl. But NFL commissioner Roger Goodell told The Athletic in February that the decision to swap 'End Racism' for 'Choose Love' was in response to tragedies in the months leading up to the game, including a terrorist attack in New Orleans, the wildfires in the Los Angeles area and a plane crash near Washington, D.C. 'Choose Racism' had been previously featured in the NFC Championship Game in Philadelphia and will remain a stencil option this upcoming season.

Jose Tena's 2-run single helps Nationals rally for 3-2 win over Phillies
WASHINGTON (AP) — Jose Tena hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the seventh inning, Paul DeJong homered for the third time in five games and the Washington Nationals rallied past the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2 on Thursday night. DeJong walked leading off the seventh against Jesus Luzardo (11-6). Riley Adams doubled, Daylen Lile walked and, with one out, Tena singled past the drawn-in infield against Orion Kerkering to put Washington ahead 3-2. Shinnosuke Ogasawara (1-1) struck out Kyle Schwarber with a runner on to end the seventh and got his first major league win. Rookie Cole Henry worked the ninth and fanned Trea Turner with a runner on third to secure his first career save. Turner had three infield hits for the National League East-leading Phillies, who have lost three straight while scoring three runs. Philadelphia left eight men on base. Luzardo allowed three runs on four hits in six-plus innings. The Phillies didn't arrive in Washington until early Thursday afternoon after maintenance issues necessitated a change in planes and an overnight stay in Cincinnati after Wednesday night's game. DeJong homered on the first pitch he saw from Luzardo in the fourth to tie it at 1-all. Turner singled with two outs in the fifth and scored on Schwarber's double off the wall in center. Washington starter Brad Lord allowed two runs on seven hits over six innings. Since returning to the rotation on July 22, Lord has a 2.77 ERA and Washington is 4-1 in his starts. Key moment Tena hit a hard grounder the opposite way on a 3-1 fastball and got it past the diving Turner at shortstop. Key stat DeJong has hit safely in five straight, going 9 for 21 (.429) with three homers and seven RBIs. Up next Phillies RHP Zack Wheeler (10-5, 2.68 ERA) opposes Nationals LHP MacKenzie Gore (5-12, 4.09) on Friday. ___ AP MLB:
