NFLers Heading to Israel; Some of Them Will Be Baptized by the Banks of the Jordan River.
Martellus Bennett of the world champion New England Patriots may not be going to visit Trump in the White House, but he will be going to Israel.
On Sunday, Israel’s tourism and public diplomacy ministries announced that Bennett and 11 other NFLers will be traveling together to experience the Holy Land—to eat its food, to visit its sites, to meet its people. Gilad Erdan, Israel’s Strategic Affairs and Public Diplomacy Minister, said he wanted the players to see “a balanced picture of Israel, the opposite from the false incitement campaign that is being waged against Israel around the world,” reported The Times of Israel.
