After last night's big Monday Night Football win over the Cowboys, Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy did an interview with ESPN about his performance. And when it was over, ESPN Deportes reporter John Sutcliffe also tried to grab McCoy for a quick interview. But Washington P.R. handler Tony Wyllie pulled McCoy away from Sutcliffe immediately and yelled "No means no!" at him when he continued to try and land an interview. The moment was captured on live TV and you can watch it above.
A short time ago, Wylie spoke with TMZ Sports to try and explain why he did what he did last night. According to him, he was simply trying to get McCoy back into the Redskins' locker room to hear Washington head coach Jay Gruden's post-game speech. And that's when all hell broke loose.
"We wanted to get Colt in to hear coach's post-game speech," he said. "I wasn't denying access [to ESPN Deportes]. I wanted Colt to hear coach talk. I felt we needed to get him inside. Right after the speech, Colt went out and did the interview. I explained the situation to them. They were happy in the end."
You buying that line of reasoning?
