HuffPost
Eugene Chung says he was told during a job interview that Asian Americans were “not the right minority” in the NFL.
Former NFL player and coach Eugene Chung is still waiting to meet with Commissioner Roger Goodell regarding an anti-Asian comment he says a team made about him during a job interview this year. Chung said on a conference call Monday that he never was told by the league why a requested meeting with Goodell was not arranged nor how the NFL’s investigation was conducted. Chung, who played for five teams and coached with the Eagles and Chiefs, has not identified the coach who he says told him that Asian Americans were “not the right minority” in the NFL. The NFL reviewed the matter and said this month: “After multiple discussions, including with Mr. Chung and his representative, we were unable to confirm the precise statement that was made, or by whom and under what circumstances any such statement was made.”More Related News
