Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt had to eat his words Monday after his team lost 38-33 to the Washington Commanders at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Taylor-Britt drew the ire of the Commanders’ fan base after he said that Washington ran a “college offense” for Daniels. You can check out Taylor-Britt’s full comments here.
Daniels looked like a seasoned NFL veteran Monday against the Bengals. He went 21/23 for 254 yards with 2 touchdowns. The Commanders rookie also went viral for juking the socks off of a Bengals defender.
After the game, Taylor-Britt was asked if he “regrets” what he said about the Commanders’ offense.
“No, ma’am. I do not regret it,” said the Bengals cornerback. “And I didn’t mean anything malicious out of the comment. It was made bigger than what it was.
“Yes, I can eat my words, most definitely. We did take an L today as a team. But it was sort of a college offense. Very quick, clean throws.”
Taylor-Britt was the one who ended up looking like a college-level cornerback while defending Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin near the end of the first half. Daniels found McLaurin for an explosive 55-yard bomb that led to a touchdown one play later.
JAYDEN TO TERRY.

The loss dropped the Bengals to 0-3 for the season, which doesn’t bode well for their playoff hopes. Since 1990, only 4 out of 162 teams to start the season 0-3 have gone on to make the playoffs.
