Commanders OC Kliff Kingsbury responds to Bengals CB

Washington Commanders offensive Kliff Kingsbury doesn’t really care what Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt thinks of his offense.

Taylor-Britt made headlines this week when he called Washington’s offense a “nice college offense,” and said the Commanders didn’t ask rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels to do too much.

“They don’t make him do a lot,” Taylor-Britt said Thursday. “They keep it really simple for him. Nice college offense, (Kliff) Kingsbury, the OC, so they love to move guys around here and there, but just keep it real simple for him. I heard his pass percentage is very high, but he’s only throwing short routes, some intermediate stuff, and quick throws.”

On Friday, Kingsbury met with the media and he was quickly asked if he’d heard the Cincinnati cornerback’s comments.

“I did not, but yeah, I mean he’s entitled his opinion,” Kingsbury said.

You can bet Kingsbury quickly knew of the comments. Head coach Dan Quinn probably told his entire team about Taylor-Britt’s comments. NFL teams are always looking for an edge, a little extra motivation and Taylor-Britt provided some with his comments.

The Bengals and Commanders play on this week’s edition of Monday Night Football in Cincinnati.
