Rams’ Jeff Fisher Responds to Eric Dickerson Ban Comments

Los Angeles Rams head coach Jeff Fisher has responded to comments made by Eric Dickerson that implicate the head coach in imposing a ban on the legendary running back.

Dickerson roasted Fisher on Monday night, saying Fisher was the one who banned him from the team’s sidelines for making players feel uncomfortable due to his honest critiques of the team this season.

Dickerson also made it clear that he would not return to any Rams game or event while Fisher is still the head coach.

After hearing about Dickerson’s comments on Monday night, Fisher defended his conversation with Dickerson, while not directly taking credit for imposing a ban on the Rams legend, per Gary Klein of the New York Times:

“I had a discussion with Eric and it was brought to my attention Eric wanted some things from the organization and it was shortly after he had been critical of us, of me, of the players and of our quarterback coach.
