Commanders HC Rivera Told Bieniemy 'I Put My Foot in My Mouth' with Intensity Comment

Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera suggested Wednesday that he regretted public comments he made about some players expressing concern over offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy's coaching style.

Speaking Wednesday at a press conference, Rivera told reporters the following regarding what he said Tuesday and how he addressed it with Bieniemy: "I basically told him I put my foot in my mouth. I think what I said wasn't as clear as it needed to be. I think the understanding of it is just the fact that I think everybody's making, in my opinion, a little bit more than needs to be made of this.
