ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - The wife of Washington Redskins general manager Scot McCloughan has apologized for “disparaging” and “unfounded” comments on her Twitter account about an ESPN reporter.
The Redskins issued a statement on behalf of Jessica McCloughan on Wednesday night in which she acknowledged making the remarks, which said the reporter exchanged sexual favors for information.
Jessica McCloughan’s statement begins: “I deeply apologize for the disparaging remarks about an ESPN reporter on my personal Twitter account. The comment was unfounded and inappropriate, and I have the utmost respect for both the reporter and ESPN.”
That apology never mentioned Dianna Russini by name.
