Packers linebacker Quay Walker apologized via Twitter on Monday morning after he was ejected in his team’s regular-season finale on Sunday night. In a puzzling sequence, Walker shoved a Lions medical trainer on the field and was tossed from the pivotal game.
Walker then was seen crying in the Lambeau Field tunnel while walking back to the locker room, and on Monday he explained why he reacted the way he did.
“Also to explain my frustration in the tunnel. I wasn’t upset about being kicked out I just knew I messed up again and was wrong for what I did and couldn’t believe I did it again,” Walker posted on Twitter. “To the Detroit lions and to the entire training staff including the person I did that too. I’m sorry.”
