PHILADELPHIA -- Malcolm Jenkins plans to lead teammates in a protest that he says is not an anti-police thing during the national anthem before the Philadelphia Eagles play at Chicago on Monday night.I was very clear: Its not an anti-police thing. In fact, the police are a key part of the solution in this issue, Jenkins said after practice Saturday . It has nothing to do with the military, nothing to do with the flag itself. If you listen, the message has been the same across the board. The police are a key part of the solution, in this issue, across the nation.Earlier, Eagles coach Doug Pederson said he would participate if theres a teamwide protest. But Jenkins said there were mixed feelings among the players, so the demonstration wouldnt include everyone.If they want to do something teamwide, Id definitely be for that, Pederson said. I think it just shows unity and theres no division that way. I think it sends a great message, from our standpoint. We love this country and what it represents and the flag and the national anthem and everything. Listen, were not perfect, obviously, and for us to stand sort of united that way, Id be OK for that.Jenkins, a Pro Bowl safety last season, said the team didnt protest before the season opener last week out of respect because it was 9/11. He said hes spoken to 49ers backup quarterback Colin Kaepernick and told him hes proud of him.Whenever youre trying to change something, theres no comfortable way to change it, Jenkins said. If somebody gets upset, then its probably because theyre not listening.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Rob Maaddi on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AP-RobMaaddiHakeem Olajuwon Jersey .

Mayberry hit his first career grand slam with two outs in the bottom of the 11th after his tying homer in the 10th, and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Miami Marlins 7-3 Tuesday night. Mayberry tied it off Steve Cishek in the 10th after Juan Pierre scored on a wild pitch in the top of the inning. Domonic Brown reached on a fielding error by pitcher Edgar Olmos (0-1) with one out in the 11th and advanced on pinch-hitter Kyle Kendricks sacrifice. After Freddy Galvis was intentionally walked, Erik Kratz walked to load the bases. Mayberry followed with a line-drive homer to left. He circled the bases and was mobbed by teammates at the plate. "That was definitely one to remember," Mayberry said. "It feels good, Im not going to lie to you." Mayberry entered the game in the seventh inning. He became the first Phillies player to hit a game-ending grand slam since Dale Murphy against the Chicago Cubs on Aug. 6, 1991. "Sometimes with John, if you can get him with certain pitchers, thats when he becomes much better," Philadelphia manager Charlie Manuel said. "Sometimes, when he comes off the bench -- I wouldnt call him a great pinch hitter -- but when he goes into the game, and he gets some time in the game, the next at-bat he becomes much better. He kind of runs in spurts, and tonight, well, tonight, he put some good swings on the ball." Michael Stutes (1-0) pitched a scoreless inning for the win. Brown, who had eight homers in the previous eight games, was 0 for 5 for Philadelphia and made an error in left field. But the Phillies won their third straight to move within a game of .500. They havent been even all season. "Were going to see if we can have a go at it. Thats what we come to the ballpark for," Manuel said. A disputed call in the eighth went against the Phillies and drew the ire of the crowd. Ben Revere was called for interfering with second baseman Derek Dietrich while breaking up a double play although he slid headfirst and didnt appear to go out of his way or make much contact. Michael Young beat the throw to first, but umpire Bob Davidson called an automatic double play. Manuel argued briefly and fans booed loudly and hurlled a derogatory chant at Davidson.dddddddddddd "I dont know what he was seeing," Manuel said. "Bobs kind of getting a little old." Revere said Davidson "needs glasses." The last-place Marlins have lost two in a row since a three-game sweep over the New York Mets. Phillies rookie starter Jonathan Pettibone allowed two runs -- one earned -- and seven hits in six innings. Miamis Ricky Nolasco gave up two runs and four hits, striking out six in 6 2-3 innings. "This ballpark is very dangerous," Nolasco said. "The game is never over in this ballpark." Down 2-0, Ryan Howard started Philadelphias rally by lining a double leading off the bottom of the seventh. After Brown struck out, Delmon Young hit an RBI double high off the wall in left-centre. Nolasco then fanned Galvis, but pinch-hitter Kratz hit an RBI double that just missed clearing the right-field wall to tie it at 2. Kratz ran in from the bullpen right before his name was announced, grabbed a bat and went up to the plate. Galvis saved three runs with outstanding plays at second base. With runners at second and third and two outs in the eighth, he made a sliding backhanded grab on Casey Kotchmans bouncer up the middle and threw him out. His first gem came with a runner on third, one out and the infield up in the second. Galvis snared Adeiny Hechavarrias hard one-hopper, held the runner and got the second out. For the second night in a row, the Marlins jumped ahead 2-0 and couldnt hold it.
