"Take a backseat" = Ngồi ghế sau -> Sẵn sàng chấp nhận lép vế trước ai, chịu ở địa vị hay quyền lợi thấp hơn, trở nên ít quan trọng hơn ai/cái gì.

Ví dụ
Meanwhile, other worthy main event talents had to take a backseat because of WWE's stubbornness (bướng bỉnh, cứng đầu).

Perhaps it’s better that way. As long as people stop getting killed, geopolitics (khoa địa chính trị) can take a backseat — and, this time, a ceasefire (sự ngừng bắn) actually has a chance to hold, at least for a while.

The 18 year-old Tampere, Finland native was recently injured after falling victim to a scary hit to the head in which he had to be stretchered off the ice. Due to this, Puistola might miss the World Junior Championships this year; this should obviously take a backseat to his recovery (sự phục hồi) in what looked to be a horrific injury.
