Barring unforeseen circumstances, Commanders owner Josh Harris plans to evaluate head coach Ron Rivera's status after the regular season, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reports.
Does “unforeseen circumstances” in this case mean “an alien race steals the power of NFL superstars and challenges Tom Brady and the Looney Tunes to a game, somehow allowing the Commanders into the postseason and preventing an alien Danny DeVito from kidnapping Bugs and Daffy?”
“evaluate” in this instances means “fire”. Why pretend otherwise?
It’s a bit mean to Ron to announce in Week 12 you’ll be firing him at the end of the season
Does “unforeseen circumstances” in this case mean “an alien race steals the power of NFL superstars and challenges Tom Brady and the Looney Tunes to a game, somehow allowing the Commanders into the postseason and preventing an alien Danny DeVito from kidnapping Bugs and Daffy?”
There’s no advantage to saying that right now even if that’s exactly what’s gonna happen. Always leave yourself wiggle room lol
Its a much nicer report than “we aren’t going to fire him yet”
