Lions' Reggie Bush: I will 'harshly discipline' daughter if situation arises

Detroit Lions running back Reggie Bush made the media rounds on Tuesday. In hindsight, that may have been a bad idea.

The former USC star did a handful of interviews as part of a sponsor campaign with Taco Bell. However, one interview with WFAN might have sports fans and media talking about anything but the Taco Bell program.

Bush appeared on WFAN's "Boomer and Carton" where he was, of course, asked about the Adrian Peterson child abuse allegations. Bush talked himself into a pretzel with a couple head-scratching comments about the situation.

The most controversial centered around Bush's own parenting habits.

"I most definitely discipline my daughter," he said on WFAN. "I have a 1-year-old daughter, and I discipline her.

"I definitely will try to -- will obviously not leave bruises or anything like that on her," Bush continued. "But I definitely will discipline her harshly depending on what the situation is."

Bush also admitted he'd "possibly consider" using a switch to discipline his daughter, but he quickly backtracked and insisted he was only talking about spanking.
