ESPN executive apologizes for NFL Draft graphic about Bengals pick Tee Higgins' mother

ESPN responded to criticism over including certain details about players and their family members during their NFL Draft broadcast this past weekend - among them a graphic they showed when the Cincinnati Bengals selected Tee Higgins at the start of the second round that featured a bullet point stating that Higgins' mother fought drug addiction for 16 years.

ESPN VP of Production Seth Markman released a statement apologizing for the Higgins graphic:

The Tee Higgins graphic should not have aired.
