I honestly don't think so, people don't go to the game to see the players stand for the American Anthem. They go there to be entertained and there was no shortage of entertainment last year.
TV ratings went down 8% in 2016. https://www.google.com/amp/s/syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/2685400-nfl-tv-ratings-reportedly-down-8-percent-for-2016-17-season.amp.html
Your telling me because one black quarterback took a knee, 8% of NFL supporters stopped watching?
That was the perception, but the data doesn't back that up.
