Jordin Sparks sang the National Anthem before Monday night's NFL game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Arizona Cardinals
While many players took a knee during the song, Sparks made a statement of her own. Written in black ink on the backside of her left hand was "PROV 31:8-9," a reference to a bible verse from the Book of Proverbs.
It reads, "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy."
