Television host and former professional football player Michael Strahan said it was a mistake not to place his hand over his heart while the National Anthem played during a recent event.

Strahan said in an Instagram video posted on Nov. 12 that he was “caught up in the moment” when he stood and listened to the anthem without placing his hand over his heart at the Naval Base San Diego on Sunday.
