'Ron Rivera is the answer.' Doc Walker talks about football team's scandal
It has been a tumultuous week for Washington’s NFL football team. And for its fans. Monday morning, the team announced that it would be dropping the name ‘Redskins’ after 87 years. And then, Thursday evening, the bombshell dropped. The Washington Post reported that 15 former female Redskins employees said they were sexually harassed while they worked for the team. Walker was asked about the future of the team following the scandal. “You have to wonder, how much more is coming out? Was this it? Is this the bombshell or is there more?” “But Ron Rivera is there now,” he said. “And he is trying to create an environment and create a culture and that doesn't happen overnight.” Walker was asked if he was embarrassed for his team. “I'm embarrassed we're not able to talk football,” he said. 00:00 Washington Football Scandal 02:01 Rick 'Doc' Walker Interview _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: WJLA on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wjlatv/ WJLA on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ABC7News Subscribe to WJLA on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfIjR00qhYUFkbWIugAAbGg/?sub_confirmation=1 Daily News Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSvyoe-YmPKDGkW96ly8Qt_JR67erE_zt For more information, visit https://wjla.com/ Have a news tip?
