Rivera sends message to Commanders: ‘DO YOUR JOB’

Ron Rivera is taking a page out of Bill Belichick’s book of coaching.

Following the embarrassing and humiliating 40-20 loss to the Bears last Thursday, Rivera had a new sign placed in the Commanders’ locker room.

When players, coaches, and trainers walk into the locker room this is now the first thing they see. In all caps, it reads, “DO YOUR JOB”.

Rivera, in his fourth season with Washington, has yet to have a winning season. The result of looking at the Bears game film, Rivera felt like “sometimes the obvious needs to be said.”

Many close followers of the NFL will recall the 2014 New England Patriots documentary of the team’s season.
