Cris Carter Apologizes for 'Fall Guy' Comments on ESPN's Monday Night Countdown

On ESPN's Monday Night Countdown, Cris Carter issued an apology for comments he made at the 2014 NFL Rookie Symposium.

Monday night, Carter admitted he was in the wrong, via ProFootballTalk's Michael David Smith:

It's really hard to go through my thought process. I can't make an excuse for what my mindset was. My heart was in the right place. I didn't use words that I was very proud of. It's not the kind of advice I would offer young people. I would never tell young people to break the law or avoid prosecution.
