Washington Redskins linebacker Mason Foster is sorry for his recent controversial remarks that popped up on his Instagram page.

There were profane remarks posted to Foster's account this week, which led many to wonder if they were actually his comments or if he had possibly been hacked.

However, the incident has led Foster to blame his cousin for some of the messages, and the whole thing seems like a pretty big mess.

But he has decided to apologize for at least a portion of the posted comments.

From Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk:

“I feel bad about it,” Foster said, via NBC Sports Washington. “My teammates know that’s not how I feel about them. It was more of frustration. Think you’re talking to your friends. It’s definitely not how I feel. It is what it is.”

Foster hopes Washington fans forgive him.

“I love the fan base,” Foster said. “That was one of the reasons I know I came back. I love my teammates. I love my coaches. It was said out of frustration thinking I was talking to somebody else, but I wasn’t. But they know. The people know that I love these fans out here.”

This hasn't been a great week for the Redskins as a whole, as the team is coming off a 40-16 loss to the New York Giants.

And now, Jay Gruden is down to his fourth starting quarterback of the season heading into Sunday's matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

While the Redskins are 6-7 on the season and still in the playoff hunt, it seems unlikely that a return trip to the postseason will happen given all the issues surrounding the team.
