Antonio Brown has apologized to the NFL following a series of off-field incidents after he played just one game in the league in 2019.
Brown has been without a team since he was cut by the New England Patriots after just 11 days in September amid allegations of sexual assault and rape, which he strenuously denies.
The seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver played just one game for the Patriots, who he joined from the Oakland Raiders after leaving the Pittsburgh Steelers in March last year.
BROWN TIMELINE: What to know about burglary, battery charge
An arrest warrant was issued for the 31-year-old Brown last week in South Florida on charges of burglary with battery and criminal mischief. A judge freed Brown from house arrest Tuesday.
Brown also posted an apology on Instagram to anyone he "offended or disrespected" at the Hollywood (Fla.) Police Department.
"I think I owe the whole NFL an apology for my past behavior," Brown said in an interview with ESPN. "I think I could have done a lot of things better."
On Wednesday, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell declared that it was the league's aim to help Brown.
"I was pleased to hear that, after 140 days, there was some positivity about me, because as of late, I've just been the cancer of the NFL," Brown said when asked what he thought of Goodell's comments.
He added of Goodell's commitment to provide help: "I'll believe it when I see it."
