Antonio Pierce Apologizes for Comments on Raiders Players

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce has apologized for his controversial comments regarding players making 'business decisions' during a poor performance against the Carolina Panthers. Following a 36-22 loss, Pierce's remarks drew attention and speculation, particularly regarding cornerback Jack Jones, who missed initial plays in the subsequent game. The Raiders bounced back with a narrow 20-16 victory over the Cleveland Browns, despite being without key players like Davante Adams and Maxx Crosby. Pierce acknowledged that his earlier comments created distractions and emphasized the team's commitment to working hard despite the challenges. With a current record of 2-2, the Raiders are set to face the Denver Broncos next, which may provide further clarity on their season's trajectory.
