Former Browns S Jermaine Whitehead apologizes for Twitter meltdown

Calling his Twitter outburst "totally out of character," former Cleveland Browns safety Jermaine Whitehead apologized on his Instagram account Tuesday for his profanity-laced and threatening comments on social media following Sunday's loss at Denver.

ud83dude4fud83cudffe I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for my actions following our game with Denver. That was totally out of character for me. I do not justify my actions, but was extremely frustrated with the way I had played and our team losing because of it. I was playing with a broken hand, but that is no excuse for my actions, and I am deeply regretful.
