Fire Jack Del Rio? Washington Critics Demand Commanders Move (Sports Illustrated)

Says one former star, "Jack Del Rio is an ignorant, ignorant man. And that is as loving and respectful as I can put it.''

Not saying vandalism is ok but let's not try to pretend these are the same." And you wonder why that team wasn’t disciplined last year, because your damn leader that’s leading your defense is not disciplined.” "[I met with Coach Del Rio to express how disappointed I am in his comments on Wednesday," Rivera's statement reads. It’s time for you to pack up and step off the field.” From former Seahawks star Doug Baldwin: "Jack Del Rio is an ignorant, ignorant man. "His comments do not reflect the organization's views and are extremely hurtful to our great community here in the DMV...He does have the right to voice his opinion as a citizen of the United States ... However, words have consequences and his words hurt a lot of people in our community."

Washington Commanders defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio has been fined $100000 by the team for his comments about protests in the wake of the police ...

Del Rio's comments were prompted by preparations for this week's hearings by a House committee on the Jan. 6 riot. “If they are and they want to talk about it, I’d talk about it with anybody,” Del Rio said. A Twitter post Monday night prompted questions to Del Rio after an offseason workout, including whether he was concerned about how his thoughts might go over with players, the majority of whom are Black. “Words have consequences and his words hurt a lot of people in our community. Del Rio called the Jan. 6, 2021, riot “a dust-up at the Capitol,” which he later apologized for. Coach Ron Rivera announced the fine in a statement Friday after meeting with Del Rio earlier in the day.

Wentz had perhaps the worst end to a season last year. First, it was Dan Snyder's indiscretions that took the NFL world by storm, to then the franchise being ridiculed for his signing of Carson Wentz after making it known they were in the market for a superstar quarterback, and now Del Rio's comments. Some wanted the defensive coordinator to be sacked immediately.

At a time when not nearly enough people are telling the truth, those who are committed to it need to be willing to stand up and be counted. We’ll be asking the league and the team for a comment in response to Carlson’s attack on Ron Rivera. Chances are that neither will have anything to say. Just hours ago, the coach of the Washington Commanders, a fascist moron called Ron Rivera, announced that Jack Del Rio has no right to talk, and he’s being fined $100,000 for doing it. “Jack Del Rio is a football coach, he’s defensive coordinator for the Washington Commanders, formerly known as the Redskins ’til for some reason that was unacceptable,” Carlson said. And Carlson works for Fox News. Sister company of a major NFL broadcast partner. “So a few days ago Del Rio pointed out that nobody seems to talk about the BLM riots anymore.

Del Rio sorry after calling Capitol insurrection a 'dust-up' (Stephenville Empire-Tribune)

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — An assistant coach for the NFL's Washington Commanders issued an apology for his word choice after doubling down on a comparison he made ...

I love my guys, I respect my guys but I also love the fact that I’m an American and that means I’m free to express myself. “Anything that I ever say or write, I’d be comfortable saying or writing in front of everybody that I work with, players and coaches,” Del Rio said. “If it ever becomes an issue or a situation, we’ll have that discussion. “Let’s have a discussion. If I have a reaction, a feeling, towards something, I’ll express that with him.” Right now, it’s something that I will deal with when it comes up.” After a reporter read it to him, Fuller said: “I don’t have a reaction right now. “If they are (concerned) and they want to talk about it, I’d talk about it with anybody,” Del Rio said. I’m just expressing myself and I think we all as Americans have a right to express ourselves, especially if you’re being respectful. “And then we have a dust-up at the Capitol, nothing burned down, and we’re going to make that a major deal. Amid backlash for his comments, Del Rio released a statement on Twitter Wednesday afternoon apologizing his word choice. His comments Wednesday after an offseason practice came a day before a House committee investigating the pro-Donald Trump disruption of Congress 17 months ago begins public hearings on the matter.

Peaceful protests? In 1987, Jack Del Rio scuffled with Chiefs great ... (Touchdown Wire)

Washington Commanders defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio has an interesting history re: peaceful protest vs. violent rebuttal.

No doubt Del Rio would refer to this as a “dust-up.” “When you look the Raiders, you look at an organization that’s historically been at the forefront of civil rights, and social movements. Estell said that he changed his mind and decided not to cross the picket line, and drove away with a flat left rear tire. That’s how we feel, in talking to Mark Davis, how the football team feels about it, how our organization feels about it, and that’s right in line with my thinking about it as well. It has not been a banner week for Washington Commanders defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio. His comments about the January 6, 2021 insurrection on the United States Capitol, which Del Rio referred to as a “dust-up,” did not go over well. “I think the best way to look at it is in America as individuals we all have freedoms and that’s one of the things that make our country great.

NFL Hall of Famer and former Baltimore Raven Ed Reed said Washington Commanders defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio's $100000 fine for Jan.

And if we apply the same standard, and we’re going to be reasonable with each other, let's have a discussion. On Wednesday, Del Rio spoke to reporters about a tweet he posted earlier in the week regarding the upcoming Jan. 6 committee hearings. "And then we have a dust-up at the Capitol. Nothing burned down. "As we saw last night in the hearings, what happened on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was an act of domestic terrorism. "I just asked a simple question. "His comments do not reflect the organization’s views and are extremely hurtful to our great community here in the DMV.

Ed Reed: $100000 fine of Jack Del Rio is “not enough” (NBC Sports)

Hall of Fame safety Ed Reed doesn't post frequently on Twitter. He posted something on Saturday that attracted plenty of attention.

It also can’t be ruled out that the team, influenced by reactions from people like Reed, decides to make a change. No, it won’t be surprise if both sides move on before training camp opens. It can’t be ruled out that Del Rio, buoyed by support from the likes of Tucker Carlson, will quit before training camp starts.

However, he called his use of the word “dustup” an “irresponsible and negligent” statement, so I guess there’s that to hold onto.

In an attempt to save what little face the Commanders franchise has left, head coach Ron Rivera has fined defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio $100,000 for telling the world that he thought the Jan. 6 insurrection was a “dustup” and tweeting that the government should be investigating the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests instead.

I stand by my comments condemning violence in communities across the country. Del Rio later issued an apology on Twitter: "Referencing that situation as a dustup was irresponsible and negligent and I am sorry.
