Published: Dec 09, 2014 at 07:51 AM

Marvin Lewis remains on the apology trail.

The Bengals coach offered up a quick mea culpa on Monday night after he called Cleveland Browns starting quarterback Johnny Manziela "midget" during a radio interview.

On Tuesday, Lewis issued a second apology, this one more expansive in nature and directed toward both Manziel and height-challenged individuals who were offended by his choice of words.

We'll keep you informed of any other Lewis-related remorse going forward.
