CLEVELAND (CBSNewYork) — An NFL player is apologizing for posting a graphic image on Instagram showing a man dressed in all black slitting the throat of a police officer.

Cleveland Browns running back Isaiah Crowell, 23, deleted the image he posted on Instagram showing blood gushing out of the officer’s neck. The image conjures up videos posted by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria showing the terrorist known as “Jihadi John” beheading American and British victims.

“Mood: They give polices all types of weapons and they continuously choose to kill us…(hashtag)Weak,” the caption read.

The statement continued, “I am outraged and upset by the deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile along with so many others. I am also outraged and saddened by the attacks in Dallas and the deaths of the 5 honorable police officers (Lorne Ahrens, Michael Krol, Michael J. Smith, Brent Thompson, and Patrick Zamarripa) who were providing protection while trying to keep peace. We have to be better as a society, it’s not about color, it’s about what’s right and wrong. I was very wrong in posting that image. Every single life matters, every death as a result of violence should be treated with equal outrage and penalty.”

It is not known if the Browns or the NFL will take action against Crowell over the Instagram post.

The third-year running back led the Browns in rushing last season with 706 yards. Crowell rushed for 1,313 yards and 12 touchdowns his first two seasons.

**** that douchebag.

People just can't help themselves, can they? Oh, and in before DC...

I'm just glad for once that there's an idiot football player that makes an ass out of himself that didn't go to Mizzou.

Social media continues to be the downfall of mankind.

Apologize all you want, dumbass. It's too late now.

Exactly. His agent probably damn near shat himself and went into full-on recovery mode.

"Delete that shit. Copy and paste this now:

I am outraged and upset by the deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile along with so many others. I am also outraged and saddened by the attacks in Dallas and the deaths of the 5 honorable police officers (Lorne Ahrens, Michael Krol, Michael J. Smith, Brent Thompson, and Patrick Zamarripa) who were providing protection while trying to keep peace. We have to be better as a society, it’s not about color, it’s about what’s right and wrong. I was very wrong in posting that image. Every single life matters, every death as a result of violence should be treated with equal outrage and penalty."

That is a positive.

I'll be beyond shocked of Goodell does nothing

This got me wondering, do you guys think agents require the passwords to their clients' social media accounts for such events as this?

He was hacked! Not his fault.

Well, bye.

Well, he's depressed over Johnny Football. It's a reasonable reaction.

Nah. The agent works for the player, not the other way around.

I know. He'd be saving his bacon right about now doing some work for him. Haha.
