Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Richie Incognito has admitted that he is trying to "weather the storm" after being suspended by the club.
The 30-year-old has been banned by the team due to reports that he was harassing teammate Jonathan Martin.
"You know what, I'm just trying to weather the storm right now," Incognito told Channel 7 in Miami. "This will pass.
"You know, no comment right now. We're just gonna kinda weather the storm, and that's it."
Dolphins coach Joe Philbin has accepted responsibility for the incident that has developed over the past week.
