Vikings' Xavier Rhodes Apologizes to Mike Zimmer for Outburst vs. Seahawks

Minnesota Vikings cornerback Xavier Rhodes spoke to head coach Mike Zimmer regarding his sideline outburst in the Vikings' 37-30 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Monday.

Rhodes told reporters Wednesday he reached out to Zimmer to clear the air and apologize, per ESPN's Courtney Cronin:

"That's not the way I should carry myself, especially as a leader on this team. I apologize definitely to Coach Zim, and the things he's taught me — I should never react that way toward him or toward my team, period. I know my role, I need to play it better.
