Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson has apologized on social media for an insensitive comment he made during his postgame interview Thursday night on Amazon Prime.

Analyst Richard Sherman praised Robinson’s ability to make defenders miss, and Robinson named a game containing a slur.

This morning, Robinson explained it was “a football game we used to play as a kid but that’s not an excuse. I recognize the mistake and make sure to do better in the future.”

Hey everyone I want to apologize for the insensitive comment I made in the broadcast, it was a football game we used to play as a kid but that’s not an excuse. I recognize the mistake and make sure to do better in the future. It was not reflective of my beliefs and I am so sorry…
