KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Baltimore Ravens called the racist tweets made by fullback-defensive lineman Patrick Ricard six years ago "totally unacceptable."
In 2011 and 2012, Ricard posted at least six tweets that used the N-word. These tweets surfaced on social media on Sunday morning before the Ravens' game against the Chiefs, and Ricard was a healthy scratch for the third time this season.
The Ravens issued this statement: The tweets are totally unacceptable, and we have addressed the matter with Pat. We expect he'll have something to say later today after the game.
