Terrance Knighton opened with an apology as he spoke publicly for the first time since a bar fight last month. He apologized to the city of Jacksonville and the organization for "embarrassing them with the actions that happened that night." Knighton said he tried to break up a fight involving a friend at a Jacksonville nightclub April 8. He was hit on the top of his head with a bottle, which shattered, and a piece of glass cut his left eye. The 340-pound lineman needed staples in his head and stitches in his eye. "I have a job to do, and right now I can't do it because of my actions that night," Knighton said. "I could have avoided the situation and not tried to break it up. That's what club security is for. Me seeing a friend, I tried to help. It's a lesson learned."
