Earlier this week, Britt took his lockout frustration to the social media world as his Facebook status, according to Yahoo, was: "Retiring From the NFL. F*** You Goddell."
Followed shortly thereafter by:
"Change of HEart.. My family is always here for me. I made mistakes and i am sorry i am going to change and become a better person and mentor for all my young fans.. I will accept any penalty like a man.. The road beings Sept 11 in Jacksonville.. ill be ready!!!"
Finally, like all social media failures do, he claimed his account was hacked and rescinded his comments:
"my facebook was hacked with those past 2 status's.. i am not retiring and do not have any hate toward the commissioner."
Britt was arrested in Hoboken, N.J., on June 8 on charges of third-degree resisting arrest, fourth-degree tampering and fourth-degree obstruction. It was Britt’s fifth brush with the law since last October, and second since an early April incident in his hometown of Bayonne, N.J.
