CINCINNATI — Former Bengals running back Corey Dillon was in the news last week after sharing his thoughts on the Ring of Honor, his lack of consideration for the Hall of Fame and more.

The 48-year-old clarified those comments on Sunday night during an appearance on Bengal Jim and Friends.

_{"I want the fans to know like when I'm speaking, I'm not speaking about the fans in Cincinnati or the City of Cincinnati," Dillon said. "I'm just stating stuff that I want fixed. It's all business, it's not nothing personal. I don't really have no animosity against Mike Brown or the Bengals, nothing like that. My whole thing is I want them to do right by their former players. That's my whole objective. And there's a lot of stuff that needs to be fixed in my book. Hopefully sometime in the future, me and Mike Brown can have that conversation. With me, it's a front office thing. It has nothing to do with players, the current state of the Bengals right now, none of my teammates. It's basically something that needs to be ironed and fixed out between the front office and myself. And I hope that gets done some time in the near future."}

Dillon is the Bengals' all-time leading rusher (8,061 yards) and made the Pro Bowl three times during his seven years in Cincinnati. Check out the entire interview here.
