ASHBURN, Va. — Washington Commanders assistant Jack Del Rio addressed the team to apologize for his comments about protests in the summer of 2020 and the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, coach Ron Rivera said Tuesday.
Rivera said Del Rio also met individually with some players to discuss his remarks last week, which drew a $100,000 fine from the team.
"He was very open, very forthright, very contrite and apologized and opened himself up to questions or opportunities for any players to come in and meet with him," Rivera told reporters before the team's first minicamp practice.
