Pittsburgh wide receiver Santonio Holmes apologized Monday for being involved in a marijuana-related case that prompted Coach Mike Tomlin to sit him against the Giants on Sunday. "I would like to apologize to my teammates, the Steelers' organization, my family, and the fans for my actions that caused me to miss Sunday's game," Holmes said in a statement issued by the team. "I recognize that I made a mistake and understand the significance of my actions and will not make any excuse for my behavior. I look forward to putting this behind me and being accepted by my teammates and the fans as part of this team." Holmes was charged with possession of a small amount of marijuana after a traffic stop Thursday in which police smelled burning marijuana and found marijuana-filled cigars in his car.
