Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt said Monday night after his team’s 38-33 home loss to the Washington Commanders that he does not regret his comments about the Commanders’ offense and rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels.
In the lead-up to last week’s game, Taylor-Britt told reporters the following, suggesting that Daniels’ early success as a freshman was largely due to a simplistic offense:
“They don’t force (Daniels) too much. They keep it really simple for him. Good college offense, (Kliff) Kingsbury, the OC, so they love moving guys here and there, but just keep it really simple for him. I’ve heard his passing percentage is really high, but he only throws short routes, some intermediate throws, quick throws.”

Speaking to reporters after Monday’s loss, Taylor-Britt expressed no regrets about his comments and reiterated his belief that Washington runs a college-style offense:
“No, ma’am, I don’t regret it. And I didn’t mean any harm by the comment, it was just blown out of proportion. Yes, I can definitely take back what I said. We actually took a loss today. It was a college-style offense. Very quick, quick throws. He’s very athletic and extends plays. That’s how the game went, they stuck to their plan.”

Bengals coach Zac Taylor made it clear after Monday’s game that he has a problem with Taylor-Britt’s comments: “That’s not what we do. We praise our own team, praise the other team. We don’t have to put up with throws like that. This team hasn’t punted in two weeks. They’ve scored on every possession for the last two weeks.”
