Vikings' Kearse apologizes for his DWI arrest

EAGAN, Minn. -- A day after he was arrested on suspicion of fourth-degree DWI and carrying a firearm without a permit, Minnesota Vikings safety Jayron Kearse showed remorse for his actions.

"First and foremost I would like apologize to the team, to the fans for actions over this past weekend," Kearse said. "It's not a reflection of who I am as a person or what this organization stands for. The team and these fans deserve better. I definitely take this matter seriously and I'm sorry for putting anybody in harm's way, and I will go through all the necessary steps to improve myself.
