WASHINGTON (AP) – Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis has apologized for his comments about women reporters in the locker room.
The Redskins issued a statement by Portis on Tuesday a few hours after he talked about the issue on 106.7 The Fan. Portis said that both players and female reporters have wandering eyes in the locker room.
In his statement, Portis says he “was wrong to make the comments” and that he respects the job reporters do. The Redskins say they “will take the necessary steps” to remind players about acting in a professional manner.
The NFL swiftly condemned Portis’ comments as inappropriate and offensive.
The league is already investigating the New York Jets for their treatment of a female reporter over the weekend.
