Pathetic. Sounds like someone "confessing" at one of the Soviet show trials of the '30s.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees took to Instagram on Thursday night to expound on his apology from earlier in the day for his comments on protesting during the national anthem. Those comments were widely criticized throughout many corners of the sports world.

Said Brees in the video apology he posted:

"I know there's not much I can say that would make things any better right now, but I just want you to see in my eyes how sorry I am for the comments that I made yesterday. I know that it hurt many people, especially friends, teammates, former teammates, loved ones, people that I care and respect deeply. That was never my intention.

"I wish I would have laid out what was on my heart in regards to the George Floyd murder, Ahmaud Arbery, the years and years of social injustice, police brutality and the need for so much reform and change in regards to legislation and so many other things to bring equality to our black communities.

"I am sorry. And I will do better. And I will be part of the solution. And I am your ally. And I know no words will do that justice. "
