Seattle Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett is feeling the "Bern," and he doesn't care who knows it.
Bennett, appropriately a left defensive end, appears to be operating at the opposite end of the political spectrum from Tom Brady, who's openly supporting Donald Trump.

Bennett cited Sanders' stance on issues like "social injustice" and "climate control" as his reason for supporting the presidential candidacy of the Democratic senator from Vermont.
